Punch Drunk

Smashed
            And on the rocks
         Shaken and stirred


                To a paranoid
                   Amygdaloid 
            Control deferred

An old term, like shell shock ;) an updated version might be football fog lol. Yeah, we can never completely get away from our animal brain, our survival instinct center. A lovely day to you Vickie! xomo

With an inflated amygdala alas paranoia is a way of life, the fight or flight switch stuck in the on position. Trying therapy today to calm mine :)) Thank you my friend, xomo
