When you think you know something or believe something is true, your brain locks it in. You do not feel complacent and calm. Instead, every time you think about it you feel like a wet towel is wrapped around the side of your head, you feel pressure. There is a certain narrowness to the way you look at it. You associate with a group of people on the internet, you learn the social mores of their group, your brain locks it in and you get mental tunnel vision with that heavy wet towel wrapped around your head and tugging on your brain.
You only realise this was the case after you realise that perception of that thing was shattered. When it happens, and after you think about that false perception being destroyed (unless you think about it too much), you feel your tunnel vision pleasantly being cleared. Every second your perception is being shattered is one in which the wet towel pressure feeling disappears from your head, your brain is no longer locked in, you feel like your surroundings are far larger than they were before and you can move around in them. Beforehand you were stuck, still and in a tunnel, with (as said before) wet towel-like soggy heavy pressure weighing down along the top and sides of your brain.
