That's actually very helpful! If you need to go to the dentist or something and you convince yourself that it's not going to hurt at all it might still hurt but a lot less than if you were panicking the whole week worried about how much it's going to hurt
But the opposite can work too, you get ready for the pain to be a 9 but it only hurts a 7 so it feels like a 5
So, remember kids: Lie to yourselves B)
I'm not lying. I'm telling an alternative truth.
Well…everyone else is lying too.
If I don’t lie to my self by creating calendar events for doctor’s appointments by 5 - 20 minutes prior. I will never be on time lol
At least it's not "If all things are possible you are lying to yourself"
Nice! I do that all the time 👍
do you recommend?
being honest with myself has not been a walk in the park
Aw, I'm going to miss Joan Cornella :c (unless they come to the fediverse at which point weeee!)
