@karly.latham: Your nervous system doesn’t always know the difference between an immediate threat and something that reminds you of the past. Sometimes, protection looks like anger. Sometimes, it’s staying so busy you never have to sit with your feelings. Sometimes, it’s going quiet, putting things off, or saying yes when every part of you wants to say no. The tricky thing is, those responses can become so familiar that we start mistaking them for who we are. That’s a bummer, but the good news is you can get curious about a pattern without judging yourself for having it. When you feel threatened, what do you instinctively do? Fight, flight, freeze, fawn or some combination of all four? #traumarecovery #cptsdrecovery #healingtok #nervoussystemhealing
