Cortisol and adrenaline affect neurons, no? Else they would be less relevant to emotions, right?
You are citing neurotransmitters.
Affect and caused by are different.
And, I'm citing hormones.
Right. Neurotransmitters, which are certain types of hormones, right?
Like adrenaline and testosterone
No, different system. Endocrine system.
how is dik make hard
... What?
Okay, so noradrenaline and norepinephrine, for example, are neurotransmitters, while adrenaline refers to the hormone. I just looked it up. Is this right?
Adrenaline-epinephrine
=
man i'm hungry
Oh, noradrenaline IS norepinephrine, isn't it?
No. Your adrenaline glands are right above your kidneys.
Yes, I knew where the adrenal glands were.
Which isn't in your brain.
So for something to be a neurotransmitter, it has to be produced in the brain?
Hormones are too big to enter the brain. It's called the blood brain boundary.
In the brain or nervous system. For example, serotonin is in the nerve ganglia of the gut.
Hormones are too big to enter the brain. They act on other organs.
So how is the neurotransmitter noradrenaline related (if it is) to adrenaline?
Complex explanation. Simple one is hormones do things that make your body feel different. You feel this and interpret it as emotions the same way your brain turns photo sensetive chemicals in the eyes to sight.
Like when your anxious, you know you're anxious because your stomach tenses up, your heart speeds up, etc
Right.
You know you're hungry because your stomach feels empty.
When I'm anxious, my thoughts race too.
Thoughts and emotions can be mutually inductive.
A mental response to a physical effect?
Racing thoughts can cause anxiety or vice versa
Uhhh, no.
Just like when I'm dreaming, if I feel physically a certain way, I dream something that fits that feeling.
That's some complex Math to explain, lol
No?
Basically, human consciousness is similar to holding a mirror to a mirror. You get a ton of smaller mirrors. Those are called fractals, and fractals can be drawn with Chaos Games. Basically, you can get a nest of abstract structures.
As you scale the images, you get uncertainty, or you can't draw a straight correlation from environment to experience.
the brain named itself
Basically, humans can experience perception without sensation. Like you can think of the future, right?
Sure.
Are you sensing the future?
