You have to appreciate that all higher-level cognitive mechanics are sort of piggybacked onto “legacy” stuff that’s already pre-existing in the lower levels of the brain. “The sympathetic system mediates the four Fs: fear, fight, flight and sex.” That should give you a hint as to why most higher-energy expressions tap into the same physiological resources.
