This dissociative mechanism isn't controllable, we can't turn it on or off at will, and it leads to really only living half a life with half of the experiences necessary to engage with the whole planet.
Ever feel like you're just going through the motions, not really connected to what's happening around you? In this eye-opening episode of 'CPTSD Recovery: We Are Traumatized Motherfuckers', Jess dives into the mysterious world of dissociation. She breaks down how our brains use emotional numbing, over-intellectualizing, and fragmented personalities to shield us from stress and danger. It's a survival mechanism, but it can also leave us feeling detached and half-alive.
Jess doesn't just stop at explaining these complex processes; she also offers practical insights into recognizing and managing these responses. Whether it's understanding how your brain flips between different modes or learning to live more adaptively with these protective mechanisms, this episode has something for everyone dealing with CPTSD. Tune in for a candid conversation that could help you reclaim your life from the grips of dissociation.
