Not my second thought

"I don't like to be told what to do." No one likes to be told what to do. It's called reactance. It happens when one fears their freedom of choice is threatened. Some would say it's when the free will of one feels restricted. Of course, that depends on whether you believe in free will or how you define free will. Ignoring the reason why we are able to go on about our day is because of those biochemicals in our body, one might go to Paris and say they are there because they have free will. But there must be a driving force for them to be there. Murphy's Law says anything that can go wrong will go wrong. If something can't happen, it won't happen. If it happened, it's because it could happen.

Give-up-itis is a condition where a person just gives up and dies without any physical injury. It is rather fascinating how the brain itself is what keeps us alive. Once it decides it has no reason to live, it could just ends itself. We are only living because we have every will to live. Even at the shittiest day of our lives, even when we don't wanna wake up the next morning because we are too afraid to deal with whatever is coming, our brain still finds a reason to get up to and does the next morning. Behind not wanting to deal with a problem could lie a curiosity of how things would turn out. And that's the will to live. And the brain lives on.
