These lasting freeze responses are closely related to clinical depression and often go hand-in-hand with agoraphobic behaviors, along with other maladaptive, avoidant behaviors.
Ever feel like your mind goes blank and you can't find the words to speak? In this episode of 'CPTSD Recovery: We Are Traumatized Motherfuckers', host Jess dives into the eerie phenomenon of prolonged freeze states. Imagine being trapped in a mental void while life passes you by. This isn't just a fleeting moment of panic; for trauma survivors, it can become a long-term, maladaptive response.
Jess brings in some fascinating research on how rats under complex trauma conditions exhibit similar freeze states, shedding light on the survival mechanism that often backfires. But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom. You'll also hear about ways to break free from this paralyzing state and start living a healthier life. If you've ever wondered why you sometimes feel stuck in a parallel dimension, this episode is a must-listen.
