What if the reality you experience every day is a carefully edited movie, and your own brain is the director, cutting out anything it thinks will hurt you?

In this episode, we're exposing the bizarre and brilliant defense mechanisms your brain uses to protect you from the world. This isn't just about feelings; this is about your brain actively changing reality. We'll explore the mind-bending phenomenon of time dilation (slowing down time in a crisis), confabulation (literally inventing memories to make a story make sense), and childhood amnesia (the mysterious wall that hides your earliest years).

You'll discover why you might laugh at a funeral, why your feelings can suddenly switch off (emotional blunting), and how your unconscious mind works as the ultimate survival expert. These aren't glitches; they are features of your incredible internal operating system.

Stick with us to the very end to learn about the bizarre condition where your brain literally deletes half of the world from your awareness... on purpose.

This is the user manual for your brain they never gave you. Subscribe, share this with anyone whose mind you find fascinating, and let's explore the beautiful lies we tell ourselves to survive.
