**Edit August 29, 2017: this note comes very delayed. After reading, "How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain," by researcher and pioneer in neuroscience, Lisa Barrett Feldman, I have learned that the limbic system is complete fiction when it comes to modern neuroscience. Furthermore, the more viable constructionist view holds that emotions are constructed based on concepts in our brain based on experience. Thus, emotions are predictions, are concepts, we construct. Take these points as you will, as it's obvious the constraints and inaccuracies that now exist within my videos in anxiety. I highly recommend reading Feldman's book on emotion.
~sigh. I didn't expect it to become a contentious point whether the high-pitched recording of my voice is my real voice. It is not. I had sped up the video to shorten it for the sake of practicality and efficiency with no second thoughts as to whether it'd bother people (or please them).
A simplified and brief explanation on the different models and hypotheses used to explain the etiology (causes) of anxiety disorders. Keep in mind this is an area with ongoing research! :)
This is definitely not an exhaustive explanation, so if you're interested and motivated, take some time to read other (more rigorous) sources on the etiology of anxiety disorders. It's fascinating!
If you would like to delve further into the four main types of anxiety disorders or hear a brief explanation on what anxiety disorders are, check my other vids.
Please share to help break down mental health stigma!!!
Thanks!
