This Is Why You Think About People Who Hurt You

Tonight, you'll think about someone who hurt you. Maybe it was last week. Maybe it was years ago. Either way, your brain won't let it go — and there's a reason for that that goes back 2 million years. In this video, you'll discover why your brain is literally wired to obsess over people who've hurt you, betrayed you, or left you behind. This isn't a personal flaw. It's one of the oldest survival systems in human history — and once you understand it, you'll never see your own mind the same way again. We'll break down the neuroscience of negativity bias, the psychology of rumination, and the one thing researchers say actually interrupts the loop.
