You don’t “overreact” because you want to.
Your nervous system is simply outside its Window of Tolerance.
When you’re within your window, you can think clearly, communicate calmly, and feel emotionally safe.
When you’re outside it, survival mode takes over — shutdown, panic, anger, numbness, people-pleasing, or emotional flooding.
Healing is not becoming emotionless.
Healing is slowly teaching your body that it is safe enough to stay present. 🤍
