The danger of trusting every feeling

Lukianoff shares that his own experience with severe depression taught him that our minds can deceive us, and blindly trusting feelings can lead to harmful cognitive distortions like catastrophizing.

Lukianoff notes that the most alarming takeaway from their research is that universities are effectively teaching students the mental patterns associated with depression, anxiety, and polarization.
