This brain area is mainly responsible for the recognition and evaluation of situations as well as for the analysis of possible risks and the resulting emotional mechanisms. Accordingly, the amygdala controls, for example, our aggression or our fear. In particular, the tonsil nucleus also influences the autonomic functions of our body, such as circulation and respiration. Thus, if we hear our heart beating up to our throat when we are very afraid, the amygdala is responsible for this. For these reasons, this brain region is also considered the fear center.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">How does the amygdala trigger fear in us?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The amygdala continuously compares situations with information that has already been experienced in the past. If a circumstance occurs that has been stored in the amygdala as a &#8220;dangerous&#8221; experience, for example, the body is put on alert by the release of the stress hormones norepinephrine or epinephrine and a fear reaction is triggered. This results in feelings and emotions such as aggression, anger, sadness, which can lead to certain bodily reactions such as nausea, dizziness or palpitations<a title=\"Anxiety: symptoms\" href=\"https:\/\/remstim.com\/en\/anxiety-symptoms\/\">(symptoms of anxiety<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Networking in the brain plays an important role in this process, especially since the amygdala is connected to the motor system via a nerve connection between the amygdala complex and the basal ganglia. Rational thinking, which is anchored in the cerebrum, does not come into play because information travels from the amygdala to the cerebrum much faster than vice versa. Even before rational thinking kicks in, the lightning-fast reaction of the amygdala causes the brain to respond very quickly to the corresponding danger with fear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">As studies have shown (including experiments with individuals whose amygdala was nonfunctional or even absent due to an accident that damaged the brain), the absence of a functioning amygdala resulted in a great loss of emotion. Consequently, without the intervention of the amygdala we would be exposed to risks without protection, because especially in dangerous situations no protective reflex would be triggered by the absence of the fear reaction.\n<\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider-html\" style=\"border-top: 1px solid #bbb; margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 30px;\">\n\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\"
