What happens if I feel
happy and anthropomorphize joy?
Studies suggest that you risk diminishing
your happiness. Anthropomorphizing appears to help
depersonalize the negativity to some degree—and you really want to avoid
depersonalizing happiness. The authors suggest that while anthropomorphizing
can help with negative thinking, it’s best to own one’s state of happiness
and avoid anthropomorphizing it. Anthropomorphic thinking related to
happiness tends to dilute the happiness. Fascinating.
