@lizasamuellcsw: Your anxiety is not lying to you. It is just using very outdated information. Your nervous system learned certain people, situations, emotions, or conflicts were dangerous based on experiences that once required protection. So now it reacts fast. Before your logical mind even catches up. It scans. Prepares. Overthinks. Assumes the worst. Braces for rejection, embarrassment, abandonment, disappointment, or loss. Not because you are broken. Because your body remembers what it once needed to survive. The hard part is that the nervous system does not automatically update when your environment changes. So healing is often the process of slowly teaching yourself: “This moment is not the same as the moments that hurt me.” Does this resonate with your own experience?
