Jade, listen to Brian. He's often a condescending pain in the ass with no empathy at all but he's spot-on here. He's done his research.
Do your own research. There's no substitute for that. When you do it yourself, things will click in a way they never would taking someone else's word for it.
Yes, the human brain will manufacture shit under the right circumstances. It is very well documented. Do the research yourself and learn. Our brains are amazing but they are also flawed in amazing ways.
There is no demon or otherwise pain in the ass on your land.
No empathy? No, not condescending either. Just frustrated that my fellow humans live in a modern era clinging to old claims.
I'm not going to leave someone bleeding in the street if I come across them in a car accident, even if I don't like their claims. As long as someone is non violent and values human rights, the worst they will get from me is a "BS, or "that is not true."
But yea, our brains are powerful enough to fool us.
I have had those false sensations myself long ago as a kid. The feel very real, but I know now they were not real, but merely a product of stress, separation anxiety, loss of my father, grandmother, PTSD from being bullied by other boys on my street. Mental illness are very normal, caused by very natural life events, brain chemistry and neurology.
