[@gregzeng]

> "natalie : well 😤 I’m a teenager 😤😤 and I’m the smartest person I know 😤😤😤 ... " Only the young have the right to be ignorant & right to be unaware. No empathy at all, as this video explained. Teenage brains do not have that, usually. In my personal case, it took at least middle aged to try to understand why my father was so sexist, intolerant & uncaring. Most teenagers never seem to know this. After emotional empathy, comes rational understanding on the intelligences of ourself, as well as other people. This may explain why women are generally missing from the unsolved sciences, rather than the application of ready solved scientific puzzles, the technologies.

I spent 67 days in the hospital and then another 35 days in a brain injury center. I’m just wondering why I still feel like a kid and I can’t learn new things.

@@TheSilentMajorityNation yes they turned themselves in because it happened at a after bar party. It was like it three in the morning and they did it in front of people so there would’ve been witnesses that would’ve testified on my behalf. So they definitely copped out and took a plea bargain. the guy with the worst criminal history got 12 years and the next guy got nine years and the guy next got six years. I don’t think it was a long enough time for what they did to me. I had my homeboys asked me if I wanted anything to happen to them in person and I said no. Now I regret that because I could’ve had them stomped out like they did me in prison and they would’ve suffered a little more than I did because I got top notch treatment. These nurses work constantly fixing my face and you can’t even towel well except for my crooked nose, but other than that, I still have a beautiful smile and I am able to live on my own and be a productive member of society. And these guys are dirtbag, trash losers that will never amount to anything and what also sucks is these losers are fathers out there so their children are going to definitely gripe to be in the way people.

You can check out Eccles health sciences library digital publishing KZbin channel. There are other great channels, but here you can see dissected brain to start navigating around the brain and then check out parts you are interested. You can check out famous case studies like Phineas Gage (person mentioned on this video), Henry Molaison ( whose hyppocampus was removed which resulted in inability to form new memories) patient S. M. ( who lost her amygdala and doesn't feel fear). Also Holy Koolaid has a very interesting video about brain and consciousness which I recommend, search split brain patient. If you have time to sit trhough whole semester of classes you might find Robert Sapolsky's lectures on Human Behavioral Biology at Stanfor University to be really valuable, though it's not just about brain. Then there's one hugely underrated channel called this is your brain on science. He's got less than 1.5 k subs. Don't forget good old wikipedia. You can check out stuff like cell communication to get a wider picture. Limbic system. It's a beautiful journey full of insights to study brain. I am a huge enthusiast, though I have no background in med or bio and am not really that knowledgable.

that's sexual (hormonal) maturity u thinking of. first period vs. first sperm production. does not really affect the brain or personality development .

@@diogenesPL actually there is some truth to this question.. but not in the manner you think...some ethnic groups develop slower or faster in the frontal cortex, as well as the speech and other areas of the brain. this affects things like ( for example) how early a child will walk or talk in early childhood development. in different ethnicities . as far as you sexual development statement. . this is also true in different ethnicities .

I have ADHD-Combined type (Inattentive and Impulsive) so I'm very interested in this. I'm intelligent, even insightful but don't always appear that way in my behaviour. As Russell Barkley puts it: 'it's a not a disorder of knowing what to do but doing what you know' It often feels like I've always had faulty traffic lights in my brain. So the info is all there but it's hard to get to when needed/appropriate and often there's too much traffic going in all kinds of directions. Exhausting! I guess that's why I find the stimulant medication (at the correct prescribed dose) very calming (rather than stimulating. It's just the correct dose to help compensate for the deficit so I can function a bit more normally or rather; regulate my functioning and behaviour). I was surprised it didn't cause me insomnia. It actually improved my sleep because of the regulating effect (and I'm not jumping out of bed every 10 minutes because of stuff I forgot to do during the day).

Would drinking and taking drugs as a teen affect the development of the brain and cause problems later in life?

Thank you for your videos please do videos on brain activity about seizures thank you🙏

[@ruthtallmer9506]

This is SO interesting!

Love the background.

How do you know everything you do videos on? I mean, my God! I'm pretty sure IHA is my new favorite channel. I've already learned everything there is to know on the paranormal. LOL!

0:00 'Cortex not fully developed until 25 years'; explain please 'fully developed'. Myelination? Synapses? Neuron formation? (9:56?) 0:46 Cortex (is not just surface, is LAYER about 1/4" thick, right?) 1:55 White Matter (glia INVOLVED, but really principally AXONS ('tails') of neurons, right?) 2:10 Central Sulcus (could you spread it at top to see past initial obstructing gyrus?) (does it end at lateral sulcus, or within the end of a loop of gyrus?) 2:26 Lateral Sulcus (how deep is it? 2:35 Temporal Lobe 2:48 Frontal Cortex 4:29 Motor Cortex (anterior to (in front of) Central Sulcus) 5:16 Homonculus (shows degrees or amounts of motor control?)(is similar for sensation?) 5:46 Prefrontal Cortex 6:10 Anterior Cingulate Cortex - empathy? 7:02 Dorsomedial Prefrontal Cortex (top of the side, towards the middle? Theory Of Mind) 7:38 Ventromedial PFC (includes medial surface; works with amygdala) 8:27 (tamping bar through 1/2 of ventromedial PFC of brain, PhInias Gage) 9:17 Ventrolateral PFC (sudden motor response/change?) 9:56 Dorsolateral PFC (rational behavior? delayed gratification? risk-taking?) 12:03 Fully Develop (Social interaction?)

I have 2 questions for ya, but let me give a quick run down so you get what I am rambling about. 8 years ago, I was in a VERY violent relationship. One of his “games” involved him strangling me until I would pass out, slap me across the face and punch me in the head until I came round then strangle me again. This would go on for hours at a time!! One time though, I didn’t come round like usual. I was unconscious for 6 hours and spent a while in hospital where I was told I had suffered some brain damage. 😔 After that, I found it difficult to find the right words to use. My mind would just pull a blank even at very basic words. It wasn’t too severe but bad enough for everyone to notice the difference. A few years later, I suffered a small stroke. It caused my left eye to become fuzzy, I had difficulty reading and the whole forgetting words thing got worse. I felt like a small child trying to string sentences together that hardly makes sense. I was good at reading before the stroke but now I struggle and it’s annoying AF!!!! The damage to my brain is permanent. I can’t change that at all but I was determined to start conversing like a semi normal adult. I worked really freaking hard with an app called Elevate and have found that I am better at getting the right words out. I can actually use some big words in the proper context (internal celebrations!!) and have learned a wider range of words too. So, my questions are: 1) If a specific area of the brain is damaged, HOW, after years of struggling, can you get quite a bit better?? (I know I will never be how I used to be and will always struggle, but I have improved way more than doctors thought possible) 2) If your brain can figure out how to bypass a damaged section and you teach a different area how to do the part of the damaged section, could things like telekinesis be possible if you worked hard enough to learn how it is done?? Much love to you guys!! 💜

The brain can change shape and create new neuronal pathways through something known as neuroplasticity. When the brain enters this state it becomes malleable, and prone to literal physical change, as in, it can actually change its physical structure in major ways, which is incredible. This state of neuroplasticity can be achieved through repeated practice and with the presence of specific neurotransmitter hormones, like dopamine and norepinephrine. My guess would be that your damaged brain, through constant daily practice, physically changed itself to invigorate the healthy connections present in the damaged sector, to then create and reinforce new pathways between these neurons, which leads to a wonderful recovery of function from the damaged area. Props to you for exercising effort every day, it's not easy to change your brain once you are an adult. Really, its impressive what you have done, your story is sad but inspirational, finding the courage to keep on fighting like that after such a traumatic event is incredible. I wish you nothing but the best going forward. As for the telekinesis bit... its impossible. There is no way for humans, or any living creature, to manipulate solid objects in their environment through nothing more than the power of their thoughts/will. Maybe Jesus or jedis could do it, but we cannot, and there are no studies that point to this being possible at all, last I checked. Anyways. I hope I was able to answer some of your questions, or at least inspire you to do more investigating of your own. This is a fascinating topic, and it's really interesting to learn about the neurological process that are involved in learning and how to apply them to your own life. Maybe understanding neuroplasticity will help you learn better. I suggest listening to the Huberman Lab podcast on KZbin, it's a great source of information delivered by the great educator Andrew Huberman, neuroscientist and professor at Stanford University. Sorry for the wall of text, as I was writing I just kept thinking of more things i wanted to say. I hope that was helpful to you, wish you the best, see ya
