hm may be worth reading ngl I am kind of suspicious of seeking out memories for why things are the way they are in my head
Unlocking the Emotional Brain's thesis is that the anxiety response is coming from a set of memories that is partitioned off from the rest of your memories, and until you integrate them in a particular way they'll stay partitionedyeah like the reason i believe this isn't because i read it in a book it's because i did a bunch of seriously intense sobbing about my childhood and it permanently relaxed like half of my chronic muscle tension
