But what do you think would be most helpful for you to share with our listeners about, like, really what's happening in the brain during this process?

Sure.

Well, I'm not a neuroscientist, so I'll just caveat, but based on what I've read, um, whenever we feel these things, there's actually probably multiple things happening, um, at the same time, but I'll just cover a couple of the larger buckets.

So, um, some of that urgency and indecision, that paralysis that I talked about, that's associated with physical changes like the amygdala, these almond-shaped, um, parts of our brain, getting bigger.

And those are our fear centers, um, which makes everything panicky.

We also see some voltage changes, which we can measure by EEG, and that's like a house with faulty wiring where the electricity isn't quite working right.

It's not always turning on, and that is disrupting how we're making decisions.

Um, but what is the research showing? What, what, what can we really take here and put into practice as well?
