It's as if something within our brain is triggered, prompting us to act emotionally, without thinking, in ways we may soon regret.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn those circumstances, if our brains were connected to sensors, we would see our amygdalae, the small almond-shaped part of our brain, being triggered.
