Your brain has systems that evolved to protect you — not to ask whether a forecast is inconvenient or “unlikely.” The amygdala processes threat before your prefrontal cortex gets a chance to analyze data. That’s why:
-You can feel fear before you have words for it
-You can replay past events as if they’re happening now
-You can prepare over and over without ever feeling safe
