"What about this is *actually* dangerous?"
|
|
The amygdala is a primal part of the brain, a survival .... creates the train of thought, "Is it dangerous, and how can we handle that?"
|
|

|
From there, we can go into a safety strategy (usually avoidance), or we lean into the stressor. If you go into a safety strategy, then it's sort of "recorded", and so you've re-enforced the anxiety.
