Não, Amon não está enlouquecendo quando tira alguém dobra.
SPOILERS!
O mais perto que podemos ver, Amon conseguiu romper os caminhos do chi, talvez fazendo com que a pessoa não consiga acessar a conexão com as regiões de curvatura de seu cérebro. Este uso de flexão com habilidade quase cirúrgica foi incapaz de ser desfeito por Katara, considerado o mais poderoso curandeiro conhecido.Amon, born Noatok was the son of the crime-boss Yakone, was a highly skilled Blood-bender and brother to the city councilman, Tarrlok. His ability to remove the ability of others to Bend, appeared to be related to his ability to blood-Bend.
Korra, having lost her ability to Bend to Amon, was unable to access her known abilities of fire-bending, water-bending or earth-bending, but when she was able to, under extreme duress, air-bend, her ability to do so was unaffected by Amon's block. So whatever he is doing, it blocks the known memory of bending or the access to practiced bending in the brain. Her previously untapped airbending ability was unaffected.
Korra foi dito que ela não teria acesso aos seus poderes de flexão anteriores e que nada conhecido poderia ser feito para reparar seus poderes.
In a moment of quiet desperation, she had a vision from Aang who suggested that at her lowest point she would be able to be open to the Avatar state and the ability to reach her previous incarnations. Aang shares the knowledge of energy bending and reaches past the block placed by Amon by activating her Avatar State. This restores her bending powers. This also gives her the ability to undo all the damage done to benders by Amon.
