> Exactly, if you are more prone to sunburn, wear more sunscreen. Same as handling your own feelings.
If you could "handle your feelings" as easily as putting on sunscreen, literally every psychotherapist would be out of work.
> And yes, feelings are completely in your head.
Anything you will ever perceive is "in your head". You don't control a lot of it. "Positive thinking" doesn't cure depression or schizophrenia.
> Nobody else knows how you will react nor do they have any control of your consciousness.
Human reactions are actually fairly predictable. Being rude, arrogant or condescending is generally off-putting. Some amount of control can be exerted as well, for instance, it will almost certainly be impossible for you to not briefly picture a TINY PINK ELEPHANT after having read this sentence.
