Thank you 🥲 ive found safety in myself, but i feel like i always wear a skin-tight cocoon. People can see me, but they cant really get to me. Im here, but my emotions are wound up tightly to protect myself. Your videos are helping me to connect with people again. I really want to, but im afraid to dip too much into my "energy reserves" lol.
I don't know enough to comment on how this stuff can manifest through pain. I try to stay within the mental health sphere. Although it's obviously connected, there's only so far I can take it. Porges or Peter Levine may comment more on it.
Tysm! That last part especially, about where to get safety when you can't get it from people, is so helpful!
No problem!!

This is especially important if you're prone to limerence

Glad you like it!
how would one know if it's someone not safe or us not seeing it correctly?
Great question. Might have to do a follow up video on this...
@@JustinLMFT thank you so much✨️🫂
Can you do a video about being in fight or flight and in vagal shutdown at the same time?
Yeah, that's called "freeze." I have a Freeze learning hub in my free Members Center on my site - www.justinlmft.com/members
@@JustinLMFT thank you very much Justin!
Hi Justin, can pain be caused by a constant state of shutdown and fight or flight at the same time? Thank you so much for your video!
