Everyone is egoic with certain parts of their life. We’re all very preoccupied with our own story. As we go through life and experience trauma, we build walls—defence mechanisms. And, eventually, you adopt them so deeply and they are activated on a daily basis. You start thinking that’s who you are. We are not our thoughts. We ought to realize that the things that go on in our brain is not our true identity. — Chris Evans on anxiety and depression
