» Jo Murphy - Question???

"Because there can be an anatomical cause for rage, those that have a problem controlling their rage, might teach themselves ways to control it better"
Isn't the amygdala the cause of the rage. Hasn't it been stimulated?

I find it frightening sometimes to realize how trigger reactions work and that sometimes people can't really be blamed for their actions.
"Temporary Insanity?" It is a bit like "Temporarily Primordial??"
Interesting I have learnt a lot lately about puting a break between stimulous and response.
I've learnt a lot about calming down energy levels too..when studying acupuncture. This all really begs the question of respopnsibility for behaviour dosen't it. Existenialism really?? Like maybe people should learn how to control these impulses but you really are more likely to learn in certain supportive environments??
After you have had a rock bottom??
If you have no learning difficulties??
Lots of questions follow do you think.
Do the philosophical questions plague you?
