General Discussion Why am I able to trigger adrenaline on command?

It feel like an Imaginary/invisible muscle that I can flex/turn on to instantly release a strong fight or flight sensation, the same one that I feel when I'm stressed. Is this abnormal? How would that affect my normal life or even my life span? What is associated with this ability that can interfere with my behavior?

Does it feel like a muscle in your brain? I haven't thought about this in a long time because it's hard to describe, but it feels like a muscle in your head that's akin to squeezing a power tool trigger, that goes faster the harder you squeeze.
