You're all lost.

MODs thrive on it.
In my experience, the mods here have been pretty relaxed compared to many online spaces. I have felt a shift recently though. It would be a shame if they lost sight of what made this forum good in the first place. Places like debatepolitics.com and most others have so much moderation it makes organic conversation difficult.
 
Does intelligence also impact the complexity of emotions and your ability to manage them? Maybe it's both.
It works like this. Ideas and thoughts begin in the limbic system which is emotion and memory. An emotional message then goes up to the prefrontal cortex which makes an interpretation and sets goals and actions. They always work together. The LS is far more powerful then the PFC. It can control what you think you know. It can take over the mind in a crisis real or imagined. So its important to know what you feel and not let what you feel determine what you think you know. So in psychology we ask whats the emotional truth of your beliefs and actions? When we discover that insight increases, wisdom.

Do you think these things also apply to you? Are you blinded by your own emotions and bias at times?

Of course this is the way the human mind works. As a trained Therapist I have high coherence and are always aware of bias. Thats essential in therapy. Some people have high and others low coherence. It can be increased. The challenge is the LS sends an emotional not verbal implicit or cognitive message. The PFC understands verbal explicit language. You have an inquisitive mind looking for knowledge so Ill post an explanation

Coherence Therapy is an experiential, depth-oriented psychotherapy that achieves rapid, lasting symptom relief by targeting the emotional, subcortical roots of behavior. It works by uncovering the "coherent" logic behind a symptom, then using therapeutic experiments to make that unconscious, limiting schema conscious and replace it through memory reconsolidation.

Core Principles & How It Works
  • Symptom Coherence: The central tenet is that all symptoms (even unwanted ones) are "coherent" (logical and functional) expressions of deep emotional, somatic, or cognitive schemas, not "disorders".
    • Non-Counteractive: Instead of fighting against or reducing symptoms, therapy explores the underlying meaning, making it a "non-pathologizing" approach.
    • Memory Reconsolidation: The therapy explicitly uses the brain's mechanism for updating or erasing emotional learnings.
    • Juxtaposition Experience: Therapists help clients experience a direct contradiction to their old, limiting schema, which destabilizes it.

Stages of Coherence Therapy
  1. Discovery: The therapist helps the client identify the specific "emotional truth" or implicit, unconscious schema that makes the symptom necessary.
  2. Integration (Juxtaposition): The client experiences a new, powerful, felt truth that directly contradicts the old schema, revealing the old belief as unnecessary.
  3. Transformation/Subjugation: The old, limiting neural circuit is deconstructed (reconsolidated) and replaced, eliminating the symptom.

Techniques Used
  • Experiential Trance/Visualization: Visualizing a moment the symptom occurs to access implicit emotional, somatic, and cognitive information.
  • Symptom Grounding: Asking how the client knows their fear/feeling is true, in order to unearth the underlying construction of reality.
  • "Take an emotional snapshot": Encouraging the client to fully experience a specific emotional state to understand its structure.
  • Validation of the Sub-self: Recognizing the protective nature of the symptom.

Where do you think your biases might be preventing you from seeing reality?
 
Therapists are trained to be objective. Not agreeing is not bias. Different opinions are not bias. Give me an example of where you think Im biased
I didn't realize complete objectivity was possible. You must be superhuman.
