My wife's therapist recently instructed her to start plunging her face in ice when she gets overwhelmed with anxiety (mostly because she was refusing to consider meds)

The ice plunge is generally understood to help by stimulating the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system. But I wonder if it is related to this too.

Why does this surprise anyone? What company would do anything different?

This is why I’ve never made selling on Amazon anything more than a side-hustle. You’re just a pawn, totally at someone else’s mercy, and if you are too successful you’re bound to be eaten by a bigger fish who knows how your sausage is made.
