I find my emotions very stirred up myself. A lot of old stuff that I had been successfully not brooding on got stirred up again and it makes it hard for me to consider things fairly and in an evenhanded way.
I feel like I'm juggling Shrodinger's Box, with several possible states and an uncollapsed probability function. And I can't actually observe what's inside and realistically will never be able to, but the human mind is much better at solid narratives than superimposed probabilities, so the wave form keeps trying to collapse when my back is turned.
It is eating up a remarkable amount of my attention and energy and must be even worse for people who have more skin in the game.
