  • True, but this may still indicate a mental disorder. Feeling these emotions is the important part (especially a total lack of empathy is a huge red flag for sociopathy). I can support this claim with my own anecdotal evidence and expert analysis by a psychologist:

    In my case, I also couldn’t cry, even though I felt lonely, sad, hope- and helpless, resulting in substance abuse and depression, which obviously reinforced these feelings.

    I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder and prescribed antidepressants (Sertraline), which I refused before, because peer reviewed studies about them didn’t look great. They made a HUGE difference, way beyond placebo, btw.






  • Isn’t plastic basically biologically inert? So unless it is physically blocking something shouldn’t we have seen adverse effects if it actually was dangerous? Or maybe health problems just haven’t been associated with it yet. I think with lead it was obvious pretty quickly. I am a dumbass tho, so maybe someone smarter can correct me.
