wasn’t there some research recently that said that like 20% of what your brain does was actually controlled by your gut microbiota?
Gut biome is now believed to affect mood more than thoughts, but one does affect the other.
We found strong correlations between greater consumption of fat and protein to lower anxiety and depression, while consuming higher percentages of carbohydrates was associated with increased stress, anxiety, and depression.

Then someone walks in the restroom and takes another stall and you panic even worse. ‘Oh god, are they going to know it’s me carpet bombing this place?’ vs ‘Oh god, am I going to nuke this facility because they know I’m here?’
