Dullness is a concept denoting the inability to use logic and thinking when solving relevant problems and life situations. In its colloquial form, this word is used to characterize low intellectual abilities, the inability or unwillingness of a person to analyze a situation, as well as behavior that is inappropriate to the situation. However, the stupidity of people has another important psychological aspect - emotional.
Emotional dullness is a term in psychology that has a synonymous meaning in the pathopsychological direction - affective flattening. From a clinical point of view, a similar formulation refers to the symptoms of many psychiatric disorders (from affective and behavioral disorders to disorders of intellectual-mnestic indicators and thinking characteristics).
Dullness is detected in the context of a weakening or disruption of the sequence of emotional reactions, the manifestation of mental coldness, and indifference. Even in those moments where most people tend to experience emotional outbursts or fluctuations (tragedies, threats to life, etc.), such a person will remain impartial not due to self-control, but due to a complete lack of experience.
Indifference concerns not only external events and current shocks, but also relationships with nearby significant people; if the defect increases, indifference to one’s own personality and future fate appears.
Without appropriate treatment, emotional dullness develops, leading to changes in the personal and activity sphere, usually expressed in indifference. At the same time, a person develops a high degree of vulnerability in those areas that are usually easily tolerated by others. An example of emotional dullness is the lack of concern about the death of a close relative and severe hysteria due to the fact that someone used a person’s favorite mug. Inadequacy of response and disproportion of emotional outbursts make a person unpredictable for others.
Characteristic is the preservation of the simplest emotional reactions and basic states that allow one to regulate life and satisfy instinctive behavior. The experience of fear and pleasure remains accessible, but complex emotions such as sadness or inspiration, guilt or confusion disappear. All subtle affective processes, consisting of several components, affecting the intellectual processing of experience remain beyond the limits of possible experiences - a person is increasingly approaching the state of an animal in his experiences.
Causes of stupidity
This happens because a very large number of people stop working on their development after studying at a university, and many even while studying at a university.
School
While we are studying at school, we are undergoing very strong development, that is, one way or another, we still learn the subject. Our brains are working, even figuring out how to make a cheat sheet for ourselves or how to pass an exam without having to study for it - this is very strong brain activity, plus we go to some sections. In general, people have the strongest brain activity during this stage.
University
Well, we studied at school, many go to college, not all of course, but many go to study at a university. There is also brain activity there, which is basically similar, because There are also exams, tests, you also need to study, you need to prepare. In general, there is also brain activity here, you are still your own person, but at least a little, you are engaged and even if you are not engaged, your brain is active.
Job.
Then the most interesting thing happens. Either in the middle of studying at a university, when everything is already as if it had been established and nothing new happens in terms of brain activity, or after studying at a university there is a sharp decline. Because a person finds a job, goes to work, there is little brain activity in the first days, because there he needs to settle in, understand how to work. But then the brain activity doesn’t move at all, because nothing happens, at work everything is the same, you do everything the same, you come home and watch the same TV, you watch the same thing on the Internet, nothing occurs from the point of view of self-development. This is the main reason.
And if you approach a person and ask what he did after studying at the institute, then 95% of the time they will tell you that he worked. He didn’t take any courses or any trainings, he just worked, and at that time his brain became stiff. While he was at school, he was active, considered different opinions and thoughts, even reading books, but then only work and the same type of days. It’s not interesting to talk to such people, because... they are missing out on a lot.
While you are young, while you are learning and developing, new neural channels, new neural networks are formed in your brain, you have new movement there, but when you constantly do the same thing, this movement does not occur and, accordingly, the brain weanes itself from developing these neural networks. channels and connections.
How to insult a woman without swearing?
Sometimes women themselves ask for humiliation and insults. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to respond to curses; you can answer harshly and competently without swearing. The phrases will sound offensive and unpleasant, even worse than swear words.
Women are sensitive to criticism of their appearance. It is important to choose the words correctly and beautifully, you don’t need to say directly: you are scary, you are ugly, but they will help you delicately understand this.
For a girl, phrases with a hint of ugly appearance will be offensive and unpleasant:
- When God created women, he decided to save money on you!
- I would offend you, but I’ll just advise you to look in the mirror!
- Your words are the helpless barking of a dirty mongrel!
- Surprisingly, she’s not rich in intelligence and has no face!
- It’s a pity to spit in such a face!
You can take revenge on a woman in another way.
Phrases that mention excessive popularity among men are very offensive:
- There’s nowhere to put a sample on you!
- You have already given all your dignity to other people's men!
- You are the shame of the father and the tears of the mother!
- You are a quality man's bedding!
- Your whole life is serving your master’s sugar!
- No normal guy will even look in your direction!
- All your attractiveness ended 10 men ago!
- To get involved with you is to disgrace yourself!
The phrases should point out the flaws of the mind, they should make her look like a fool in front of everyone.
Let's consider several suitable options:
- If you were smart, then you would have a decent man!”
- Men don't leave smart women!
- So, I look at you and at first glance it seems that you are a fool! And then you look and it’s true - you’re a fool!
Signs of a person being stupid: how to stop being stupid and start thinking
Not reading books
It's a banal thing, but not all people do it. It is reading that expands your vocabulary and pushes your brain to think. You can start with 1 book per week. 10 pages a day. Then increase it. You yourself will like this business.
Guided by advice from the Internet
Of course, there is a lot of useful information here. But do not forget that situations are different and cannot be solved in one way. Instead, sit down and think about your situation. Think about what the person you always look up to would do.
Lack of interests
A stupid person has no favorite hobby. He is not interested in what is happening. He just “sits on the couch” and doesn’t develop.

No responsibility
It does not exist because a person does not want to take it upon himself. After all, to do this you need to think, think through all the steps, strain yourself, make plans and communicate with other people.
Inability to express one's thoughts
Due to lack of vocabulary, you cannot express a thought, even when explaining a simple thing. Because the brain has stopped thinking. Because of this lifestyle, the brain rests all the time. This is not always good.

Poor learning ability
If a person has difficulty remembering any material, it is likely that he has a low memory capacity. At the same time, concentration will certainly suffer. Poor performance at school and subsequent educational institutions usually creates a significant degree of self-doubt. And many young people ask: “What should I do if I’m stupid academically?” They consider it completely useless to learn something new and apply the acquired knowledge in practice. Extreme self-doubt gives rise to additional problems associated with communication and self-realization.
It becomes difficult for a person to concentrate on the task at hand. When thinking about the question “What should I do if I’m stupid and lazy,” you should be guided by an individual approach. Each person is unique and has distinctive characteristics.
Working with self-esteem
Stop calling yourself stupid! It is very important to free yourself from the feeling of internal discomfort if you really want to start feeling differently.
There is no need to constantly torment yourself trying to cope with the existing problem. When a person calls himself stupid, he thereby admits his own weakness. Most likely, other people will begin to perceive it accordingly. However, it is worth remembering that a narrow-minded person will never think about his own shortcomings.
Developed reflection just means that a person is smart enough. It's just that some people don't know how to value themselves and find their strengths. You need to learn this! Working with self-esteem begins with accepting your individuality. It is impossible to achieve anything significant if you do not try for it.
Inability to hear the interlocutor
Such a person is extremely inattentive to what is happening around him. He focuses only on his own needs and therefore tends to ignore people's reactions.
The inability to listen to the interlocutor over time results in the fact that others begin to consider such a person not very distant. From the outside it seems that he is absolutely unable to delve into the subject of the conversation, he does not know what it is, that is, he is a bright representative of stupid people. Indeed, such a person is overly focused on his own experience.
Skill Development
What if I'm stupid? You must definitely try to improve your abilities. You can’t just stand still and not make any attempts to change yourself.
Developing communication skills contributes to overall productivity. Then any task will be within your reach and will bring moral satisfaction.
It is necessary to strive for a feeling of joy and spiritual fulfillment. The more we work on ourselves, the more prepared we become.
Thus, it is never too late to try to change something in your life. If a person feels quite insecure around other people due to lack of knowledge, this means that he needs to expand his inner vision. There is no need to dwell on the problem. You should always remember that there is a way out of any situation.
Constant self-education
What if I'm stupid? This question usually comes to mind for those who suffer from low self-esteem. And to feel confident, you actually need to make significant efforts. The best thing to do would be to start educating yourself. Systematic exercises increase self-confidence and help release huge amounts of energy that can be used for useful purposes.
Self-education undoubtedly increases self-confidence. Thus, a person ceases to consider himself stupid and narrow-minded. Sometimes it will take a lot of effort to free yourself from the inner feeling of inferiority.
Habit of comparison
When a person feels stupid, in most cases conclusions are drawn based on comparing their own shortcomings with the strengths of others. And this is a big mistake! People cannot be the same and have the same amount of knowledge in all areas. Almost everyone has the habit of comparing themselves with others. It comes from a lack of self-confidence. The more we soul-search, the more difficult it actually becomes to focus on everyday tasks.
When a person compares himself with others, he thereby admits his own weakness and robs himself of precious energy. This condition cannot lead to anything good, since it hinders development.
Diffidence
Lack of self-confidence is another reason why a person may begin to consider himself a failure. It’s hardly surprising that he doesn’t understand much in life. If you constantly think about your own inadequacy, then you may never make progress in important matters and issues.
Self-doubt makes it very difficult to enjoy life, comprehend its boundaries and open new perspectives. It is impossible to achieve success if you constantly look back at yourself in search of answers to a wide variety of questions. You cannot oppress yourself with painful thoughts about your personal unfulfillment.
Lack of self-confidence
Only by fully realizing one's own prospects can a person move forward. Everyone has opportunities, but not everyone understands how to apply the knowledge they have in life. Lack of self-confidence actually blocks many undertakings and does not allow the personality to reveal itself. Thus, self-realization becomes impossible, since it is hampered by the strong fear of potential defeat that arises.
Each failure is experienced very hard, as if the happiness of a particular individual depends on it. “Why am I so stupid?” - a person constantly asks himself, asking himself numerous other questions about his inferiority. In most cases, he spends a long time looking for an opportunity to remake himself. This is because there is a fear of loneliness inside, coupled with the fear of not being up to par.
