You can't tell me what to do!

It's basic fear response conditioning, I doubt it ever fully goes away because being cautious of the unknown is a very successful survival trait.

Basically every time you open that inbox you'd have to lie to yourself into believing that a negative response is an impossibility. Good luck, if you figure it out let me know.

Only way to know is to try it again! Soooo hopefully I didn’t give you too much dread 😅
