How Your Brain Works During Anxiety and How Panic Away Can Cure Them
Considering everything it does, the human brain is incredibly compact, weighing just 3 pounds.
Your brain has a little bunch of cells on each side called the amygdala (uh-mig-duh-luh). The word amygdala is Latin for almond, and that’s what this area looks like. Scientists believe that the amygdala is responsible for emotions. The primary area of the brain that deals with stress is called the limbic system or the mammalian brain. Via your atonomic nervous system the limbic system responds when your body perceive a real or imagined threat. When signals come from your brain signalling distress the sympathetic nervous system prepares you by releasing hormones. Your adrenal glands release adrenaline or epinephrine that will increase your heart rate, breathing and/or blood pressure (flight or fight). This causes a release of glucose and fatty acids into your blood stream. This then moves the blood faster to the brain, and blood flow to the skin is reduced and your immune system gets put on “hold”. In this temporary state your body is now able to respond to the “life-threatening situation”.
Getting Back to a Normal State
As we age it becomes even more difficult for the sympathetic nervous system to slow down and allow the tranquilizing parasympathetic nervous system to calm things down.
