Humans are emotional beings, and therefore live in an emotional state, trying to run away from danger and going in search of pleasure. How these emotions are handled in the brain? Today, thanks to neuroscience can explain
.
The renowned neurologist and Argentine neuroscientist Facundo Manes, founder of the Institute of Cognitive Neurology (INECO) and the Institute of Neurosciences, Favaloro University intervenes with “Brains network” to investigate the issue.
“Like other animals, humans have a reaction system against the danger that breaks out of fear. The tonsils, which are two almonds of neural tissue at the base of the brain are activated by downloading responses that help the brain to react to danger. “
Humans have a more complex system against the threat: anxiety
Anxiety is normal is situations like crossing a street, for example. “I have to be anxious seeing if comes a car that can shock me or getting hurt, but the problem is that the anxiety or the mechanism of anxiety senses danger where there is and that is the pathological anxiety”.
A related condition is a panic attack. “When we think that something catastrophic is about to occur and our body reacts vehemently. In addition there are obsessive-compulsive thoughts such as being convinced that there is a deadly virus latches”.
are also phobias it is something exaggerated fear. “All of these behaviors are exaggerated expressions of a brain system. And these exaggerated behaviors make us victims of ourselves.”
The series “Brains network” suggests going unveiling these mysteries information statistics and exclusive documents about how the most fundamental organ of our body. Follow him every week in mics Trends Infobae .
