oh amygdala
ooh amygdala
have mercy on the poor bastard

Last two days my anxiety has been in panic mode (feeling ok atm, hope it lasts), and this is a fairly accurate depiction of what it felt like inside my head.

BIG poster print would be awesome.. I love this.

I deal with extreme anxiety at times and this is a really powerful image.

I have this exact feeling sometimes.
Sometimes more so, with medicine. This is... an incredible rendering of those intense, difficult moments. Thank you

Very cool work!

OOF. Goddamn, that packs a punch... And as I watch it, I'm curious how I find it flipping between two different kinds of amygdala hijack, fear and rage. Times when I've been paralysed with fear, times when I've been so angry that my vision misted over.

We really are creatures of emotion long before any veneer of logic.

Those shapes are so fraught, and yet so delicious at the same time. :O Amazing concept, as always. I really love how you draw focus with the slight yellow glow around the head and push it back at the edges with blue tint (is that overlaaaaay :> ) , and that fist is powerful. :D

I love this so much. It's so incredibly visceral

I feel this.

The immediate emotional tug and meaning I got from this before reading the description screamed "That looks like how I feel during a panic attack."

Your words in the art description flow hand-in-hand with this beautiful work of art... It's another visceral and insanely enlightening piece. This one really stands out to me. Thank you for sharing this personal expression of this painfully agonizing and ongoing struggle with us all, especially for those of us who relate on a day-to-day uphill battle.

Powerful and beautiful piece! Looks almost like a maze at first glance, which your fears and anxieties can feel like.
