Absence Of Negative Emotions

[SimpleGuy]

Guys is it okay that I almost don’t experience negative emotions? Of course I’m meditating. But does meditation have such huge impact?

When did it start? And how were you before that?

I don`t remember when it exactly started, but I think it happened where I started meditating.

Before meditating I experienced negative emotions like a "normal" human being. But oftentimes I suppressed those negative emotions.

To be clear, I now do experience positive emotions, but not negative ones.

It's ok

You belong to certain personality types which has only positive emotion

 

Negative emotions are inborn

@SimpleGuy No it's not normal for you to have negative emotions. Instead having negative emotions indicate that one is a healthy and functional adult . The positivity culture is guilty of promoting unhealthy pursuits of never having negative emotions, or never feeling bad.

I have been guilty myself for this as years ago I used to "Eliminate suffering" rather than accepting or dealing with suffering which I do it since more than an year ago. And life has improved due to it.

Negative emotions are necessary to be acknowledged and processed of you want to create rock solid, real happiness .

Hmm, how accurate is that? For example, you can't have 'positive' without 'negative.' Perhaps what you're referring to is the experience of equanimity, or a kind of peace. But this shouldn't be confused with the absence of emotion, whether positive or negative. If something is regarded, recognized, or distinguished as positive, then negative - and vice versa - is created when that initial assessment is made.
