Hey folks.
I don’t particularly relate to most of what has been discussed here, there are some shared feelings but the causes of said feelings come from a different source.
I’m curious about empathy though, it seems it is something that develops rather slowly compared to other mental faculties. Most teens seem to be lacking in it, what happens to your brain during that time, can empathy be narrowed according to stages of development?
I’m 43, and my empathy is working fine, but I just don’t seem to care about the info it’s relating to me. I often do something contrary to this info, again I wonder if it’s another stage of life where empathy changes.
Most likely it’s just me, my anger, and dissatisfaction with my environment though.
