From the study it sounds like there is a real life River out there somewhere.. Shame they didn't say how the attacks ended up.

I also don't think their results qualify as "fear reactions" so much as "I can't breathe and I kinda need to do that and I really need to get the flippin mask off to continue doing that..." Probably had accelerated heart rate to accomodate action, but not quite panic...

Self preservation trumps a great many things.

The thing about River is that they would have had to do a lot more to her than just strip her amigdala, TV brain discussions are generally lacking in fullness or accuracy.

I don't know, it could really have been a panic response. I have understated reactions to a lot of stuff, yet I have panic attacks and am diagnosed with anxiety disorders.
