Thank you so much for your kindness @emilclaudell!
There is so much stigma around mental health in world. Not just that. We are free to roam around our inner world of feelings and we relay on them, but how can we trust them? What if they are deceiving us? What if they are just chemicals in our brain? It is not nothing indeed. Our minds are still mystery to be solved, but it is important to remember that we might be blind in the dark, but we are in it together. All of us. We might be alone in our shells, but we don't have to be alone or lonely. If that makes sense.
All the best to you too ^^
It makes perfect sense, at least i understand it in my way :)
Some would say that it is only chemicals, that it is so and so levels of dopamine, and so and so levels of serotonin, and they wouldn't be wrong. Because on a molecular level, it is simply neurons firing at each other.
But where then, comes our consciousness? We might be made completely of stardust, and we might simply be of the same matter that creates everything else in the universe, but in that sense we're the universe trying to understand itself. The fact that atoms can be combined in such a complex structure (quite a hubris thing to say, for all we know, we could be bacteria compared to other life forms out there), is baffling.
And in that sense, it is really hard to understand what actually makes of feel. Because if it is only chemistry, then there must be a set way of creating conscious though. If we aren't "gifted" with something special, if it's all just natural law at play, we should at one point be able to make a conscious AI, with independent thought.
Sorry, i got carried away on a train of thought there.
We don't have to be alone. We might not have a way of truly knowing that anyone, besides ourselves actually exist, but we can choose to believe. We can choose to be together.
I hope this day went a bit better than the last, and that it will continue to do so each day onward :)
