Rating people's faces has fucked up my mind

[UnderTheKnife]

Ever since getting familiar with face analysis, I cannot help but analyze every person's face I see, even strangers on the street. Philtrum ratios, jaw angularity, facial thirds, eyelid exposure, canthal tilt, etc. etc.
Sometimes, I even get subconsciously angry if someone suddenly turned their face away before I had completed the analysis (how dare they!)

The more worrying part is that you also start noticing the smallest "defects" in a face and... eventually, you start seeing everyone as ugly -- even Stacies!

Has anyone been in this boat? How can you overcome it?

PSL rots your mind.

You will never go back to being an oblivious normie who knows nothing about facial aesthetics. You will always subconsciously analyze the facial ratios of every person you meet

Thinking about it now, I guess sometimes it's good. For example, I knew a guy that I used to find intimidating for no clear reason (I guess it was just his character). But once I became aware of the significance of the negative canthal tilt and realized that he has it prominently, I couldn't take the guy seriously anymore!

I also came to notice that he has a very short ramus (and thus very steep gonial angle) and very loose hyoid skin.

The guy went overnight from someone I literally feared, to a subhuman joke in my eyes -- all due to a 30-minute video on facial aesthetics.

I don't feel bad for him though because he was an arrogant deluded prick who thought he was better than everyone else.
