Why can’t we control out own sensations ? Why is our brain not able to just turn off the feeling of pain for the moment ? “I got it, something is bad, now stop hurting !” Or to just fall asleep whenever we want to.
Your brain can shut this stuff off when it gets bad enough. Your brain can cause you to disassociate from a very traumatic event so you don’t recall it or panic during it.
Also adrenaline and opiates created by the brain can mask pain for a short period of time.
