How Does Stress Hijack Your Brain and Parenting?
Просмотров 2212 часов назад
When your brain shifts into survival mode, it triggers an inaccessible state for knowledge, skill, and choice. In moments of perceived danger, the brain diverts energy from higher-level thinking centers-the prefrontal cortex-to activate primitive regions responsible for survival. This means all the information from parenting books, courses, and experiences becomes practically useless in surviva...

    This makes sense. People do not understand that panic attack = emotional flashback and we need to snap back from Regression back to our adult body. CBT gives us wrong information by defining panic attack as imaginary and irrational - but this is trauma and we heal trauma only by NOT abusing ourselves. CBT is instructing us to abuse ourselves when it says that our triggers which triggered panic attack are irrelevant and in all cases - triggers are outside of our control - they are real : like Gaza, Ukraine, narcissistic abuse.

    It’s so good to hear you mention that grief can exist even when a parent is still alive. This was my experience, and I have felt very invalidated in the past when conversations of grief and loss have come up. Parent loss on any level is incredibly painful, but I didn’t even know I had the right to feel grief growing up! I’m grateful that I have compassion for myself that I didn’t have before. I have been processing a lot of sadness and grief in the last few months. I find that my creative energy and energy to be physically active is coming up because of this. This work is incredibly validating ❤️

    Makes a lot of sense now how my brain keeps getting in the way sometimes.. I'm in the process of healing this blackhole by myself, I believe. For most of it, I didnt have a clue what was going on and only found out by watching videos like this afterward that confirm my theories and explain what I have experienced. Most of my healing is rooted in spirituality, meaning meditation, yoga, and physical exercises that help release trauma stuck in my body. Lastly, it was safe for me to do this by myself, but if I can give one advice.. Do your best to listen to your body. I made the mistake of pushing myself too hard a couple of times and it was too much to deal with in those instances.

    I already know whats going on, its how to stop it that no therapist can answer. How do we get rid of it? And how do we heal.. this is just letting people know whats going on and it makes me anxious this is why going to therapy is hard. Im already aware I just need the tools. "I know the job, just need the training" and therapist need to learn how to treat AWARE patients. My therapist literally derailed from our goal because she saw how aware i was (meaning not doing as much work as we should be doing) my appointments were mainly gossip ones.. 🙃 everytime I left? I was still in survival mode.. their only solution? Medication... my best advice is to go see a Riki therapist that will move the energy out of your body so your body will heal. Do not and after 20 years of therapy, take any meds to quiet the mind.. once the therapist sees the meds are not working? Aka numbing your mind? They up the dose or adjust it or add more. Your body needs to feel those emotions if not? Those feelings will be suppressed and you will never heal. This is also why 20 years later? Im not better the meds.. im just now learning somatic therapy and how to feel my feelings instead of drawing them or coloring them..

      This is such a real problem. Awareness does not = or result in healing and the quicker we can get someone tools and training the better. I have a saying that an ounce of brain work is worth a pound of theorizing. I also do not agree that you have to feel your feelings or that the body needs to feel the feelings. We need to process the feelings. There are many feelings that people cannot feel and if that were required many would be left without a healing option. Once we get the brain processing, the issues and unresolved trauma and distress will begin resolving. Later as there is more healing and resolution, more feeling naturally becomes available. That is decided upon the mind-body and not any therapist or person. Have you tried my free program, Interventions for Inner World Transformation?

    I have a couple questions...I've researched, or at least tried to research twins. I am a fraternal twin, and my twin is a girl. She was very outgoing, and I was painfully shy. She had many friends, and I didn't get friends until my later years in high school. I was bullied incessantly because during middle school, I was ugly (extremely crooked teeth, glasses that were too big for my face, and short hair that did not in any way flatter me) and I walked with a limp, often times being called, "cripple" I was more of a sounding board for my mother and her problems, than she was for me. Father wasn't emotionally available, for any of us. Ever since 2005, I have been disconnected from my toxic family where substance abuse was rampant. Whenever I was home, I tried to blend into the background hoping to not be noticed, I would isolate myself in my room with my radio. During our younger years, my sister would get invited over to people's houses I would come with and vice versa. My sister would get in trouble and to prevent me from making the same mistake our mother would punish me too. I met a young woman in 2005, whom I felt a spiritual wholeness filling a vacancy that I wasn't aware that I had within me. Would the vacancy be caused by being a twin? This isn't really a question, I now realize as I have been floundering around for many years during my life, because of my never having felt safe, responding by running. I am now locked into a housing contract where I was elected for a position that requires responsibility and working with others. I am now unable to run. I have gotten extremely anxious and slipped into a bit of a depression. I'm going to prove to myself that I can do it, however dealing with the anxiety is extremely difficult.

It has been suggested to me that I essentially took on a parental role with my father, and now, at 33 and with children of my own, I'm feeling the repercussions of that dynamic. I want to prioritize setting healthy boundaries for myself in order to ensure my mental well-being for the sake of my children. Although I understand and implement boundaries in other aspects of my life, I struggle to do the same for myself. I recognize that I need to learn to say no and protect my own well-being.

    I very much liked how you handled this sensitive video. Your demeanor is wonderful for a topic like this. Well done! However, may I ask you to do all men a favor by not calling it a "dysfunction". Very few of us fall into the category of "dysfunction". It is more of a variance in ability that is multi-factorial. Erectile variance is FAR more accurate and sensitive and you will likely gain a broader audience, especially as a female working in this field. As you may know, only about 10% of men with these issues ever seek help. Fewer still seek intimate care like this from females. So, female providers may only be seeing approx 5% of those with issues. We cou;d make it easier to talk about, by using terms that are not marketing speech that was designed to shame or scare men into taking action such as trying meds. Doing this may tend to make men more at ease when considering asking for help. Anything that starts out with humiliating/emasculating terms like "Erectile Dysfunction" will only have the effect of more men continuing to not ever seek treatment. And yes, men and women can have performance anxiety, but it is plainly obvious for all the world to see when it happens to a man. Lube and a little "fake it til you make it" can be an option for females. Not so for men.

      What great feedback. Thank you. I haven't heard the term Erectile Variance and I think that is a great and sensitive term. And your comment on performance anxiety is powerful. Thank you. Thank you for sharing.

      @@rachellemccloudlcsw It is a term I have used (and I wish the medical community would use it) as it is one I can digest or maybe even talk about. This is opposed to the word "Dysfunction" which sounds disparaging, negative, and daunting. And who would ever want to talk about what men see as a weakness/lack of masculinity, virility...the things we all measure men by but never admit. It's cultural and is part of the human condition, but if we ever hope to give more men social permission to seek treatment (not just the 10% with these issues), we are going to have to use terms that are at least neutral and realistic and not negative or emasculating.

      @@rachellemccloudlcsw I think and hope you will have a good result by substituting this term. If it only raises the amount of men that seek treatment for this sort of thing from 10% to 13 or 15%. It’s good for everybody. It’s good for men. It’s good for the medical profession. It’s good for families.

      @@rachellemccloudlcsw Hi. thanks for the quick reply. While I absolutely have what you describe in that post, the "need" to keep busy to avoid having to face ongoing stressors or having to deal with unresolved issues (for which for post may be helpful), there is something else also. I think what I am asking about is not a fear of dealing with the issues I carry now, it is a learned survival 'skill' from my childhood that I believe makes perfect sense logically - it is a survival adaptation. In addition to emotional and physical neglect throughout my childhood, there was a period where I was frequently physically punished - to the point that I was afraid all the time. This led me to be hypervigilant - constantly alert to what I am doing, saying, the emotions I am expressing ... constantly alert to the mood of my mother and step-father ... My body learn that the only way to be safe was to maintain the constantly alert state so that I didn't make any mistake that wold result in painful physical punishment. The issue I have now is that any attempt to relax is seen by my body as an immediate physical threat ... I can only be safe if I am ALWAYS alert. This manifests as;- 1. An anxiety response. My therapist, in preparation for an IFS session asked my to get myself relaxed, and my body responded with a strong anxiety response. 2. If i ever try to meditate or otherwise calm myself, I become very dizzy. not a vertigo type dizzy, it is more like the feeling that my head is shaking side to side as a 'no'. but my head is not moving. I have had this all my life. there is some subconscious 'thing' that doesn't want me to drop the hypervigilant state. I have seen other videos of yours that describe the required downregulation for us to feel calm - but not only can I not do this as I will then have to deal with the painful thoughts that come up, but there is this more 'survival' aspect that would stop me getting anywhere near a 'relaxed' state. I hope I have explained that ok! (and thanks for taking the time to read this!)

    oh shit. the most common root issue. yeah, that's my history hahaha. domestic violence. I didn't really have a mom but my father was a very angry man with an insecure masculinity, he was very triggered by femininity such as me identifying as a woman or gays acting womanly or women acting "slobbish", there was just a general energy in the home that was very very controlling and hostile to femininity and grace and therefore there was never any peace. The big problem with me is that I am everything my father is not, so it affected me the most and he hated me the most and he physically hurt me the most because everything about me was so intolerable for him. My father is quick to tell people they're wrong and slow to reflect but I am the opposite. He is avoidant of emotions and doesn't like to introspect but I am the opposite. He responds with violence but I am overwhelmed by it. He is always a coward but I am sometimes brave. He has no talent but I have light. He likes to stew on things but I am desperate to move forward. He likes to hoard things but I do not wish to be burdened. He doesn't like to clean but I need my mind as clear as my space. Etc etc. I did see him physically abuse my step mother but she was such a narcissist that she had it coming, same with my sister, but even though they totally had it coming, the particular incidents were undeserving. They were bad women but whenever he was physically abusing them it came as a shock because they had done nothing wrong whatsoever, my father simply hated that my sister was growing as a young woman and becoming her own person whenever she got back from hanging out with her friends and he perceived this as insolent or arrogant or disobedient or ungrateful. It frightened me, but he actually abused me the most because he had a weird conflict of emotions dealing with me believing myself to be a girl, he threw misogynistic gender expectations at me as well as toxic male expectations at me so that I was stuck in and never able to do the right thing and was always in trouble more than anyone else, the whole family just declared me the big drain or drag or enemy of the family. So my trauma isn't exactly the same as watching women of my family get beat but the general hostility to femininity feels very relevant, im just finding ways to connect these dots to my own issues.

      The awareness and emotions you are expressing indicate to me that you are lined up for some powerful healing. It's now just about getting this processed. Do you have a plan for this yet? Whether you do or not, I want to invite you to trial some of my favorite interventions for this healing work. I'll share the link at the end of this to my free Interventions for Inner World Transformation program. To resolve the issues you are sharing will take more skill than what I'm sharing in the free program, however this will give you a taste of the kind of work your brain can do for you as far as processing. You can play with these interventions, support processing with these basic skills until you are ready for whatever next steps you feel called to take. here's the link: rachellemccloud.thrivecart.com/interventions-for-iwt-yt/

    I'm almost done with the video and I love you. The part of my brain that is stopping the healing doesn't care about words, doesn't do words, and hearing I can heal without talking about my trauma shocked me. I'm so glad because I am getting really tired of words so I'm glad I don't have to deal with them. I'm so glad I'm hearing how autonomous this system is. I'm often forcing myself to get what I want such as going to work and making money and trying to sexually perform, but it makes so much sense and I'm so glad that you said if I help my brain get what it wants then it can help me get what I want, It's such a great way to phrase it that way because my trauma has largely been abuse and so helping others get what they want is something i've had to spend too much time doing so thinking of my brain as a person I'm supposed to please and help it get what it wants really clicks some neurons together maybe. My brain doesn't care about my erectile dysfunction, it doesn't care about my body issues, these are issues i'm concerned with but my brain cares about it's own things, that makes so much sense you're so fulfilling a good purpose for people like you're doing real work and not just a job.

    thank you so much, I don't identify as a man but I am male and I don't have ED but I do have penile/sexual dysfunction where it's just not working how I want it to be and the first 4 minutes made so much sense for me. I also have gut issues where it's just not working how I want it to be and I'm having weird cardiovascular changes where my body just feels different to be in now after developing PTSD and I notice new veins that are very blue in my arms where things are just different, numbness as well and getting light headed at different things than I normally would, just feels like I got switched to a new body that works differently and I hate it.

      Thank you for sharing your experiences. And yes, trauma impacts our body and a lot of times that somatic and physical distress are the actual traumatic experiences the body is trying to process and isn't having success. A lot of times, when we process that trauma, the body feels so much better and starts to shift into healing and resolving those issues as well. I may make a video on this soon.

    I was so close to healing... all of my anger came up but instead of processing it in a healthy way, I lashed out at loved ones and lost everything. Now I am numb, health is failing, spiraling in the guilt and shame. I lost everyone I cared about. How can I believe there's hope at this point? 🥺😭

    • @rachellemccloudlcsw
      @rachellemccloudlcsw Месяц назад

      There is a lot of hope. The path to healing is not linear and some of our greatest mistakes become some of our greatest lessons when we get them and all of the pain and shame and spirals processed. If we don’t get them processed. They become our greatest points of suffering. One of my inspirations is: if you find yourself in hell, don’t stop and sit down keep going so you come out of it on the other side. This is very true for posttraumatic stress like this. It can be hell and it resolves, keep going, but you’ll need to support your brain to do this healing work. This kind of pain shuts healing down.
