In summary, the molecule attributed to patience is oxytocin, a hormone and neurotransmitter that plays a role in social bonding, trust, and empathy. Some studies have shown that oxytocin can increase patience and decrease impulsive behavior by promoting relaxation and trust, and enhancing communication and cooperation. It can be artificially increased through various methods, and while it is not the only molecule related to patience, other factors such as hormones, neurotransmitters, and individual and environmental factors may also play a role.

Well... I contacted the manufacturer about it. She said it's not even a real molecule! It has no tie whatsoever to patience. It's just a concept, or something.
So, I definitely didn't buy that necklace!
I bought Theobromine instead! (in chocolate)
Well, thanks to you all for looking at a trick question! Ha! :/

What is the molecule attributed to patience?
The molecule attributed to patience is oxytocin.
What is oxytocin?
Oxytocin is a hormone and neurotransmitter produced in the hypothalamus and released by the pituitary gland. It plays a role in social bonding, trust, and empathy.
How is oxytocin related to patience?
Some studies have shown that oxytocin can increase patience and decrease impulsive behavior by promoting feelings of relaxation and trust. It may also enhance communication and cooperation, leading to more patient and cooperative behavior.
Can oxytocin be artificially increased?
Yes, oxytocin can be artificially increased through various methods such as intranasal administration or through activities that promote its release, such as physical touch, positive social interactions, and meditation.
Is oxytocin the only molecule related to patience?
No, there are other hormones and neurotransmitters that may also play a role in patience, such as serotonin and dopamine. Additionally, environmental and individual factors can also have an impact on one's level of patience.
