I would like to start in such detail: “Well, look what’s happening...”. But no. Maybe it's better not to look up and around? How then can you move safely in space and thoughts

Life settings tell us this. In the “sometimes a banana is just a banana” mode, we generally make quite adequate behavioral decisions. Relevant, from our personal point of view.

If they somehow do not morally and socially correlate with public opinion, then no one is pulling you by the tongue to throw out your doubts to the court of society. Unless you have a hidden masochistic need for someone to call you names in every possible way and you remain in the mode of self-grief, undervaluation and exclusivity.

We are a free country, and everyone can harm themselves as much as they like, as long as the Constitution and the Criminal Code are not violated..

That is, at the level of biological behavior, at the vegetative level in general, our anthropology, thank Darwin, quite successfully copes with species survival, until the head with its mostly stupid thoughts interferes with this process.

Let's start with the head.

The more you watch news that does not have the slightest practical meaning for you, the more you will get tired of trying in vain to find this meaning mentioned above.. Because your personal meaning is not there and cannot be in principle. If this is not news about you personally. But if this is about you, you already know about your events. Why should you look at yourself through the eyes of others if they will never understand what is really happening to you

News producers have their own specific meaning, they get good money for it. The more shocked you are by what you hear or see, the more you unconsciously click and share, the more profitable it is for them. To them, not to you. Just business, nothing personal.

Well, all this weighs down so much that cognitive dissonance appears. This is called out loud, of course, by other words, not by such scientists.. It is a psychological term that describes an unpleasant state that occurs when a person experiences a conflict between his beliefs, values, or beliefs and reality..

This can also happen when a person loads two (or more) opposing thoughts into his head or when his actions do not correspond to his beliefs, and circumstances force. (IDPs, for example. I didn't want to leave, but I had to.

The number of various types of traumatic experiences in our time has no visible chance of decreasing. It's not even about specific communication signals. And the fact is that in two years we have become accustomed to the feeling of the infinity of war.

It's like putting two mirrors opposite each other.. Possible with a candle. The picture created is mesmerizing, fantastic.

But these are just two mirrors. Two planes that reflect light very effectively. You put them that way yourself.

Two opposing mirrors in our head are depression and anxiety.. An input signal that bounces off them repeatedly hurts until the signal naturally decays.

Now a little about the body.

The mechanisms of natural anesthesia in the brain, when it comes to traumatic injury to the body, is the production of its own opioids, such as endorphins. They may block pain transmission in the nervous system. In addition, other mechanisms are involved: decreased neuronal activity, changes in brain electrical activity and chemical levels. It may also affect the perception of physical pain and cause anesthesia.

When we experience stress, certain biochemical changes occur in our brain. One of the key reactions occurs in the hormonal system, it includes cortisol and adrenaline. Under the influence of stress, the adrenal glands produce these hormones, which leads to increased activity of the nervous system.. Don't Try to Reduce Cortisol with Google Tips. The body is wiser now, it can handle itself.

First we get excited so that we are as ready as possible for a quick bodily and mental reaction.. If the body’s primitive initial reactions do not bring the expected result (getting rid of the threat), the same cognitive dissonance already mentioned occurs..

But when stress lasts for a long time and we continue to be constantly overwhelmed, changes in the balance of chemicals in the brain can occur, slightly altering behavior.

For example, the production of a neurotransmitter may increase, which has a slowing effect on the nervous system. This may lead to decreased responses to stimuli and anxiety levels.

How did the concept of uncertainty evolve in human perception There are several sacred characters worth remembering.

Ludwig Wittgenstein explored language and its relation to reality, including the question of indeterminacy and ambiguity in linguistic utterances. They say that Castaneda grew out of him (including).

Bertrand Russell studied logic and philosophy of mathematics and considered the issue of uncertainty in the context of mathematical systems and logical paradoxes. It has become a bit of a museum since the linear way of describing reality (the mechanistic approach that developed during the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century) turned out to be of little use for interpreting our, to put it mildly, pluralism.

Willard Van Orman Quine developed the concept of " This approach is still good now, because we all, in one way or another, “translate” all external signals into our own language, understandable only to us. And it’s not a fact that we prefer the truth of life or cultural distortions.

John Stuart Mill explored the uncertainty of moral concepts and principles, arguing that there are many situations in which it is impossible to find a clear answer to moral questions. Mill was a proponent of utilitarianism, a theory that states that all actions should be judged by their effect on overall happiness.

In political philosophy, Mill defended the principle of individual freedom and limited government intervention, freedom of speech, freedom of thought and women's rights. (Well, handsome, really? And this is the 19th century!

So why do we get frostbitten and stupid when we think about the future

In planning for the future, cognitive processes include the following sequence.

Awareness of the need or desire to plan for the future. Here the need seems to be determined by our upbringing and crippled by school, like the legs of ancient Chinese princesses. We must think about the future because that's what we were taught.

On the other hand, one of the theories of the emergence of speech says that speech developed when it was necessary to report non-obvious things and describe events that happened before or could happen later. Signal sounds were no longer enough and thus futurology appeared.

Gathering information about opportunities and resources that may be available to achieve the goal. It’s more difficult here, because our personal resources ensure the survival of us personally and our loved ones.

It's like a biological priority. But social ethics comes into play, and decent people sacrifice personal resources to achieve the goals of others. I hope there is no need to explain anything about the war here.. That is, our resources, on the one hand, are ours. But on the other hand, potentially not ours. Because you never know.

Analysis and assessment of different options for action, taking into account possible consequences and risks. In this part, the analysis and assessments range from fantastic assumptions at the level of futurological bloggers to the pessimistic bodily sensations of a Monday morning after weekend get-togethers. (It's like the "

Choosing the optimal option or plan of action that best meets the goal. The closer the goal is to you in time, the more realistic it is to realize it. And the less injury in case of any failures. It’s quite normal to plan tomorrow in full, but when we think about the week, we get a little overwhelmed and squashed. So don't think about the week. Who's forcing you? Be effective at least tomorrow.

Developing specific steps or strategies to implement the chosen plan. It depends on how independently you are going to implement the plan and whether you personally have enough resources for this. Otherwise, you will inevitably ask your near and dear ones for help, which is quite normal for a person as a social being.. The main thing here is to choose what is more acceptable and less traumatic for you - “a cross or panties,” as the old joke says.

The main traumatization occurs when you “do the splits” between your inflated self-esteem in the area of \u200b\u200bpersonal capabilities and turning to the general public for help, who are not even aware of your existence.

Carrying out planned actions and monitoring their progress.

The cultural Ukrainian problem is that we are never satisfied with the result of our efforts, no matter how significant they are. There is a historical explanation for this: because we are trying our best to make up for tens and hundreds of years of lost historical time, as modern political scientists and historians explained to us.

The peculiarity of the events we have already experienced is that it is technically impossible to “catch up” with them. In addition, all these events mostly did not happen to you, and not even to your ancestors. Unless you invented a time machine and didn't tell anyone about it. Everything that happened has already happened irreversibly.

If you somehow stress too much over this point and tyrannically force others to follow your behavioral protocols to control actions and consequences, then you probably have signs of obsessive-compulsive disorder (but this is not certain).

Evaluating the results and adjusting the plan if necessary. The brain of living creatures is configured in such a simple way that it performs only two tasks. The first is the search for food or resources (in particular information), which in our conditions is almost the same thing. The second is communication functions designed to serve task number one.

The fact that people are a consumption resource for each other makes us shudder a little and remember Neanderthal times. But the Cro-Magnons, from an anthropological point of view, were cannibals only in isolated ritual cases - out of great respect for the merits of the deceased.

So just show as much respect as possible to your surroundings.

The cultural settings of our times are like tight dress shoes. They can be as good and aesthetically perfect as you like, but you can’t walk far and fast in such shoes. When we increase the variability in our behavior and responses to environmental stimuli, we increase personal flexibility and survival, but we risk falling out of social acceptance and becoming lonely.

Therefore, in every historical period it is generally accepted that the norms for assessing any social events and reality in general have always been so politically correct.

And then reality breaks the window of your house of cards and sticks its stinking ugly face inside your barbie shack..

Of course, you don’t want to predict your future in the form of a fairy tale about the three little pigs, and even with an open ending..

Trust your body more than your head. The Neanderthal brain was probably even slightly larger in volume than ours. Well, they haven’t been in the world for forty thousand years already.

The Cro-Magnons came, borrowed clothes and women from the Neanderthals (by consent, of course), and learned to adapt to freezing during the Ice Age. And they became genetic carriers of anthropological progress throughout the continent, which I wish for you too.
