Of what use are negative emotions?
)
May 11th, 2009
What is so good about being able to feel bad? Do I need to feel hatred to perceive that someone poses a threat? Do I need to feel fear to avoid danger? Do I need sadness to avoid losses? And of what possible use are phobias and depression? If there were a way to shut down a person’s negative emotions, do you think the person would be at an evolutionary disadvantage?
