What: "But in the case of fear and anxiety, the frontal cortex is outgunned by the more primitive amygdala system. The brain circuitry that carries fear-inducing signals from the amygdala is like a four-lane highway. But the more analytical and potentially moderating signals from the frontal cortex travel along a smaller, less well-developed pathway that evolved much later in nature."
