@travelosophical: On the flip side, "the wise" often suffer from what psychologists call depressive realism. Studies suggest that individuals with a more accurate, objective view of reality—and those who are highly analytical—can suffer higher rates of anxiety and low mood. They don't have the luxury of comforting illusions. They process the full gravity of situations, existential truths, and systemic flaws, which takes a massive toll on cognitive load and emotional well-being. #cinematic #quotes #philosophy #psychology
