The Roots of Fear and Anxiety
"So how do the various developing brain regions contribute to our emotional development? And how do our adolescent experiences steer brain maturation and contribute to later–life fear and anxiety? The answer resides partially in the amygdala, part of the subcortical limbic system and a key player in emotion regulation. Also involved is the prefrontal cortex (PFC), the anterior part of our cerebral cortex responsible for complex thought and emotion processing."
