It's your personal experience that is irrelevant as it has absolutely nothing to do with your own argument.
What I said was very relevant. I am correcting the error you make when you say that your belief about emotions can't change your emotions. You said that you believed the world was horrible but you felt only positive emotions. But you talked like your belief about the world couldn't evoke negative emotions. They can.
This is both trivially true and pointlessly obvious. Hardly profound.
