I think this is true for many, but it is not true for all. Some of us would thrive in these new circumstances. I am extremely inflexible when it comes to emotions. There is more to it, but the way I've explained it to others is that my clock for emotions ticks 10 times slower compared to them. That is, if I develop emotions at all. This is something that has affected every aspect of my life for as long as I can remember. There doesn't seem to be a way to "fix" it, but for a long time I've considered "more time" to be the best way to accommodate it and for me to live life at the pace that works for me. Obviously, I won't know until I try, but I would very much appreciate the chance to get a shot at it. And, much like the parent commenter, I am very eager to see more of this world before leaving it. Whatever may or may not come after isn't going anywhere, so might as well take some time.
