![]() Many people will share that they "don't feel right", "are crazy", "messed up" etc. Essentially we are self-preserving as there is some part of the brain / body that is not ready to be dead yet. This could mean that we gravitate towards high risk behaviours or activities uncharacteristic for us to bring about that sense of excitement, activation, and vitality. Similarly people will only stay in a shut down state feeling emotionally deadened inside before the brain/body shifts us out of this often by gravitating towards (often subconsciously) things that make us feel alive. ![]() For example, we can only tolerate so much pain, anxiety, fear etc before the brain and body respond and numb us to this excessive energy. What I have observed however is that as human beings we only have capacity to state in one state for so long before the brain and body shifts us. In this state our system can become stuck on off characterized by exhaustion, depression, flat affect, numbness, disconnection, dissociation etc.This too impacts our sleep in that we may want to sleep all the time, this impacts our appetite and digestion as well and may make us feel emotionally deadened.
