I've been reading few articles on Psychology and I came across a headline which is a bit tricky for me to understand it . It goes as " A hijacked brain and a tongue held hostage" and the link for this article is https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/...201408/hijacked-brain-and-tongue-held-hostage
The thing is I understood what was in the article but I couldn't get what the headline is about. I mean A hijacked Brain and a tongue held hostage ? What is it... Does it mean a brain and a tongue holding something captive or does the phrase " a tongue held hostage" mean a tongue was held hostage by someone/something else or does it mean a tongue was holding something/ someone a hostage . I couldn't be able to interpret what this headline means so please help me understand this statement . I would mean so much to me. I spent last night thinking about this and gave myself a hard time. Please help me
