Some feelings can be controlled by appropriate action. For instance if you experience fear because you don't know how something may end. You may start doing research on it and explore different outcomes. Often turns out that these outcomes aren't actually bad and such information makes fear disappear in an instant.

In my world, controlling your feeling means being able to turn it off or change it by sheer will. But yes most feelings can and should be managed through positive actions which you can control.

controlling feeling is black and white all we need absence of blood flow so we can tense our muscles we can go to near hypothermic conditions and stil we are subject to the brain stem survival needs and whos to say that doesnt have feeling

You should totally become a therapist dude, I didn't know it was that easy! Thanks!

Next up: homeless people should just start doing research on the property market and buy a house.

Didn't say it is easy. Not sure why such a negativity. Are you okay?

this dangerous line of reasoning we can to a large degree control our actions however this idea of control in the first place is in the wrong frame ihmho

Explain why? Most misery comes from expectations.

And also most joy.

How else would you overcome the basic risk of doing anything?

look its snot even clear across whole human population that free will even exists so controlling ones own actions seems like someone saying ok I see something and thats kind of a double entendre.

plus i cant think of many cogent examples where some force beyond human cognition surfaces that controls ones own actions seemingly beyond ones own ability to control which actually has far reaching consequeneces because where does this idea of control actually begin and start hence why even bother with this frame

Both joy and misery are to be expected, but in both cases you must be careful of how you act in reaction to these feelings.
