Wow.

because we are flooded with cortisol during childhood and all that.

Our brain says, I'm in a stress environment.

I'm never going to be happy.

So I don't need all this serotonin pathways.

I'm not going to build them the proper way.

I'm going to kind of build a couple, but I'll mostly focus and specialize in the stress.

And that's what people like you and me and probably most of the people listening are dealing with right now.

School, but your family, man.

Look how fast you jump past that.

Dad, don't get married, don't get married.

Divorce, household, all this pain.

Look how fast you jump through that into school.

That's what most people do.

They neglect that.

You don't have to have a horrible childhood where you're suffering every single day to have attachment issues.

Research shows that 65% of Gen Z, at least 65% of Gen Z, have attachment issues.

On top of that, minimum 10% have personality disorders, potentially up to 15% or 20%, which is the most extreme version of attachment.

So we're potentially looking at 80% of Gen Z having serious attachment challenges, maybe 20% securely attached.

Holy crap.
