How to use prefrontal in a sentence?
If you feel like you're in control of the stressor, then there aren't these toxic brain changes, if you feel out of control it leads to chemical changes in the prefrontal cortex that weakens the connections, and over time actually erode those connections away.

It's a double whammy. At the same time the prefrontal cortex is getting weaker and more primitive, the brain circuits that generate emotion like fear are getting stronger, you start seeing the world as harmful even when it's not.
