I guess what I am curious about is the etiology of SP. I used to take off my glasses so that I couldn't see people's faces, and that seemed to diminish the SP to some extent. The recent theory of SP seems to be centered around the amygdala, and the reaction of the brain when someone with SP sees the faces of other people. I am wondering if there is something about the way that the orbital cortex and other brain areas interpret visuals of other human faces that triggers SP.
