The Neuroscience of Focus 

Gracias 👍😉❤️

The Brain isn't fui actually post a video on center of attention in the brain

The Brain isn't fully developed until it starts going senile. I noticed adults get smarter at making themselves dumber. They block out irrelevant information. They block information contradictory to existing beliefs

​@@osmosisjones4912research say majority of psychopaths are men because otherwise women while throw tantrums objects the men did the study including a lot of the women who did the study

Are you aware of studies demonstrating the relative safety of the "flavored air" in Fum's products? I'm aware of studies demonstrating that the vapor of electronic cigarettes using typical ingredients such as propylene glycol or vegetable glycerin, for example, is 95-99.9% safer than normal cigarettes. How does Fum compare?

Ustedes se turnan para los vídeos ❤ gracias 🎉

Seriously though

Me too. I concentrate so hard on what I'm seeing and hearing that an hour can pass but I don't notice.

It's not really an anatomy at that point. It is, but that would require more in depth neuroscience and microscopic interactions.

​@@unitedstates9618You sound very ignorant.

dude that's one person commenting just asking... my guy's looking for an opportunity to hate... people with ADHD have smaller prefrontal context, now relating to the video that information is not stated. So, asking would be completely valid.@@unitedstates9618

@@unitedstates9618 Since you're open to changing your mind, let me explain how ADHD works. What he's basically talking about in this video, the functions of the prefrontal cortex, is what we also call our executive function. ADHD is executive dysfunction. My prefrontal cortex doesn't function the same way as a neurotypical person's might. It doesn't mean it's abnormal, it's just different. I can take in more information that might be necessary but it's difficult to get rid of the stuff that isn't necessary. Way back in the time of early humans, this would've been great. Even one person in the tribe with this type of brain would've been fantastic for taking in and quickly assessing danger which is why people with ADHD work fantastically under pressure without habituation. We almost work *better* under pressure than not which is partly why we end up procrastinating. There are obviously negatives to this but part of that is because of how people have built societies. They've been built around neurotypical people who function opposite to those like myself so it just *seems* like we're lazy and "have never focused hard" when, in fact, it's the opposite. I focus so hard on presenting neurotypical while managing how my brain works and also working *against* the natural way my brain works that I actually burn out much, much faster and lose the ability to function properly because I'm not doing it the way I need to do it but the way *they* want me to do it which doesn't come naturally to me. So for a simpler explanation, someone takes your dominant hand and ties it behind your back, putting a pen in your other hand and forces you to write with that hand only for the foreseeable future. The only chance you get to write with your dominant hand is at home. Sure eventually you'll learn to write with that off hand. It won't be nice but it's legible. It'll take a lot longer for you to write with that hand and people will complain about you being slow and lazy but you don't really have a choice, right? "You're just not trying hard enough! Try harder!" Try as you might, it doesn't *feel* right. That's what it's like to have ADHD. Putting forth 200% of our effort when everyone else needs to only put in 100% Writing with your off hand when everyone else is writing with their dominant hand. If you happen to be left-handed and from the time when left-handed people were being forced to write with their right hands, you should easily be able to understand this, honestly. Even the correlation between the amount of left-handed people being openly left-handed rising after the stigma ended and the correlation between the amount of people diagnosed with ADHD rising after the stigma ended is exactly the same. I hope this helped you understand better :) For my qualifications on this subject; I've had ADHD since I was a child and obviously it's not gone away lol I am glad it's finally being studied more though. I can finally learn more about how my brain works and how to work with it after all this time.

@@kyokoyumi Thank you 😊

Glad you like them!

I agree. It gives the most upward detail and clarification that I have been needing, even in an everyday life situation. Also, because of these videos I can help explain to my kids about the anatomy of the body, and actually have answers to the how’d and why’s. 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾

Glad to hear it!

It was a Angel✨

Haha no, it was mostly anatomical.

Nothing. I was also thinking how different would this explanation be if neurodivergence conditions such as ADHD and autism were discussed.

I am sorry that you had to go through that.

I think my prefrontal cortex matured long before I was 17. I was never an “irresponsible” teenager.

That’s not the one and only reason. The majority of Individuals that turn to addictions have experienced trauma that wasn’t addressed prior to the age of 25. Trauma changes the brain functions.

​@@ricardopassos1180 Your upbringing and life experiences might have prevented you from being an irresponsible teenager

Justin y Jonathan del instituto de Instituto de la Anatomía humana gracias los aprecios 🙏👍

I've gotten a eletricuting pain when coming close to a very possible danger. Like a car accident. Maybe your body is on over drive. I believe you✨

They share regions of the brain. Physical pain begets emotional pain, while emotional pain becomes physical pain.

Thanks!@@jodywho6696

I was like…that’s not true for half of us. 😂😂 OCD is like you want to forget? Let’s hyper focus.

Nope. No difference. Would be interesting to hear more about the drug effects though. It is horryfying reading, and experience.

Me too!

So we can become smarter

It really would, as he wouldn't be able to ooint to anything in the brain, because it is a pseudoscience (I am myself diagnosed with this bs.) It is "just" stress.

​@@TheDavveponkenThere are genetic markers for ADHD. There are differences in gut microbiomes and sleep patterns. There's lots of data and thousands of experiments you can look at. It definitely isn't just stress. In fact, over the decades I keep going back to stressful jobs because I find under high pressure is the only time I can focus 100%. Maybe it's alright for you, or maybe you were misdiagnosed, but don't dismiss something that's a huge daily struggle for so many people. I literally cried my first week on medication (at about 35). It was like a massive weight off my shoulders, but also sad because if I'd been medicated earlier my life would have been so different.

@@machematix Those are highly disputed and non-conclusive. I have looked. There's a lot of confirmation bias and overall disregard for another, more complex, explanation. Because it is complex. People are complex. There are many forms of stress - what I'm talking about is psychological stress (from lacking parenting and childhood trauma) that is often ingrained and not readily apparent by the person in question. A stressful job might in fact aid in focussing that stress into domething productive rather than unfocused hypervigilance towards one's environment (mostly social) and one's own sense of lack - real or imagined. I also do well in stressful jobs (unless you count the following fatigue) due to being used to operating at high stress levels (my personality is one based on stress from decades of unsupportive parents and subsequent similar relationships. I'm not disregarding human suffering, on the contrary. I'm appreciating how that suffering shapes personality and personal futures. The blame for it however is misplaced and not only does it leave the reason go uncorrected, it severely risks the persons health snd longevity. Psychiatry is a pseudoscience. Anyone who's been through the "diagnostic procedure" can attest to this if they really think about it. I quickly lost my ability to cry when I went on ritalin. Along with my cognitive and sexual functioning. Still, 18 months later, everyday is a struggle to motivate myself to staying alive. Doubly so because the very part of my brain handling motivation has been broken. I feel no motivation, no joy, no high anymore. Nothing really affects me anymore, not even alcohol. I had an open mind and it cost me everything in a matter of days. It is dangerous stuff. What you experienced is a drug effect. If you decide to taper off though, do it slowly, All the best. Ps. Speaking of gut biom. Fasting is great for your clarity. Should be medical advice instead. 48 hour fast two times a month. I've had to find out these types of things due to the poisoning.

Like you I’m a layman as well. But forty years ago I made a discovery. It was a way to end depression symptoms without any intervention by physicians or prescription drugs. It took me decades to finally fully understand it and a book by Dr. Michael Gershon who authored The Second Brain. It describes another brain located in the lining of the digestive system. This means that we have a dual brain system. One in the head that thinks things, sometimes too many things, but can’t actually feel anything. No pain receptors in the cortex at all. The one in the gut though is not designed to think anything but feels everything. From your greatest joys to your deepest sorrows. I now have a simple way to use this system to blow depression and anxiety out of your existence in 14 days or less. And I can prove it.😊❤

Thank you!

Great idea!

Happy new year!!

Maybe write it down simply , in separate topics. So you know where it is and can leave it there while moving on to what you want to focus on✨

Which med school did u apply

@savageshorts1559 Rawalpindi Medical University its a merit based government funded university

@@pencilneraser1420 great 👍

All the best to you in med school - may you apply yourself and enjoy the whole experience and exposure. Keep focused and all distractions firmly in background. Crudos to you. Do no harm. Thrive in learning have good success in applying knowledge and understanding. Be blessed you, your classmates and tutors.

@@user-qf8zp4oi3e aww thank you so much for your kind words 💗

It’s surprisingly accurate, but as with all things there’s definite wiggle room. Some may mature closer to 24, and others more so around 26 to 27. Still, the 25 year age range is observed cross culturally, and has substantial evidence to support it.

❤ there are other videos, but it's never too many.

Great suggestion!

I have 1 trigger that I know of--coins being counted out into a cash drawer. (I used to be a cashier.) I learned to tune it out--otherwise, I'd go nuts!

I learned about CRPS by watching the trial on law and crime channel. The law suit videos were called Taking Care of Maya. The staff at John Hopkins never believed her or her mother. Very sad and although the outcome was positive, the traumas that family had to endure was truly heartbreaking. I hope you are able to find ways that manage your pain❤❤

Fascinating!

Executive function goes deeper then cortex at some erea between hemispheres behind the frontal lobe In front of the limbic system Above the Hypothalamus. I just released a video on this subject

@@osmosisjones4912can't find it?

Great idea!

Wish u the best buddy ❤ you will make it ❤ just keep going ❤

There's many causes of muscle weakness, so it's difficult to say the issue is. Your best course of action is to speak with your Doctor

It depends on how much you believe on the new label and your capacity to change the habits that are disturbing you. Or the person who has been “diagnosed”

There isn't any proven difference. "Normal" brains can look just the same as "adhd". Adhd is a harmful label. Anyone suffering from stress - physical or emotional - will have a haed time focusing. Please stay away from their drugs they are harmful.

Focus isn’t solely found in these two areas. Several other areas are involved, such as the basal ganglia. Still, these two regions are large players

yes i would too like to know of how to get those distractions off my head and wish I can just focus on one thing at a time and get it right the first time.

A video on ASD is a great idea!

@@theanatomylabwould be great to hear about it based in observable neurobiology

​@theanatomylab yes, please.

Semper Fi - 3/3 India Co. both 3rd and Weapons Platoon - 2006 - 2010 - 0311/0331

Yes! I would like to know too. I already have arrangements made, however, I may reconsider.
