Seeing that person's face makes me feel anxious.
I wake up at night and replay the unpleasant conversations I had with them.
Every time someone mentions their name, I immediately want to change the subject.
This is the kind of person who takes up space in your head 24/7 – and refuses to leave.
So why is it so hard to stop thinking about difficult people?
The answer lies within our brain’s survival instinct. When someone triggers anxiety, anger or fear, our mind marks them as a threat, making it impossible to ignore them.
Written by neurosurgeon and neurologist Dr Michihito Sugawara, Delete That Person From Your Brain offers a revolutionary way out: don’t fight your brain’s wiring, retrain it.
Through simple techniques and real-life examples – all rooted in science – you’ll learn how to shift your brain’s focus from negative thoughts and emotions towards what truly matters: personal growth, creativity and happiness.
Michihito Sugawara is a neurosurgeon specialising in emergency brain diseases. In 2015, he opened Sugawara Neurosurgery Clinic (Hachioji City, Tokyo) and, in 2019, he opened Sugawara Clinic Tokyo Brain Doc. He has an innovative style of medical care that prioritises patients' life goals. His easy-to-understand explanations of how the brain works are very popular, and he has appeared on many TV programs.
