Feelings as Messengers

  • Feelings act as messengers, orienting us towards better situations.
  • Modern psychology focuses on helping people reconnect with their feelings.
  • This contrasts with the numbing effect of SSRIs, which dull both pain and pleasure sensations.

  • By paying attention to our feelings, they can serve us.
