Does anybody here experience anxiety paralysis? When going out and going to public transport, sudden onset of something is going to happen soon, and and slowly getting paralysed?
I knew nothing about the freeze response until a few weeks ago. I have had a lot of trauma in my life from childhood to the present day. I have distanced myself from certain friends and family members. My phone is turned off 24/7 and I don't care. I was a nurse for 35 years so I was always busy. There are many other family factors as well. What I am upset about is that I don't want to do ANYTHING! I just want to stay in bed and hopefully sleep, so I can shut myself off for a while. I will list some of the things I fight or guilt myself about, household chores (all of them) frequently making an app with the dentist and then canceling, checking my mail, and not responding to mail. I have to force myself to shower, etc. Everything is too much effort. This situation started during the covid lockdown and has continued to worsen. My daughter and I became estranged during covid and we have been unable to reconcile, no matter how hard I try. I have an 86 year old sister with dementia, and I take care of her banking and other things. She is difficult to manage. The point is, that I am tired and I just don't feel up to the tasks. All my life I have taken care of everything and everyone. I wrote in my journal, I want to run away and tell no one. The problem with that...If I run away, I have to take myself with me!
Your channel is a goldmine...waiting for your next video 👍
You are amazingly helpful and I believe it has to do with the fact that you deal with these issues too. ❤ Thank you 🙏
Thank you for your videos! You’re very much appreciated! I follow you on TikTok and anytime I feel like I’m dissociating or need some mental health tips I always go to your page❤
Omg thank you for following along and I’m so happy I can help support you ❤

My psychologist explained this very thing to me, but having it in a video that I can watch when I'm in the mood (and not dissociating) is great.
Thanks for doing this kind of content and for the work and time you put into it. I will be looking forward to the next video♥
Thank you! Really needed to hear this. It's something I've been battling for about 2 years. Looking forward to your next video. Keep up the content & good work. Stay gold 🙌

Hi micheline, thanks for the explanation!
I've been struggling on managing the freeze response for the past 2 years, and its very nature prevented me from recuperating from it and move on with my life.... leaving me stuck in a rut with no clue on how to move forward. In my case its not social anxiety, rather the trigger is exposure to certain situations/places/objects. Do you know of resources that i can search for to help myself?
❤
Hey Michelene, have you thought about going to a holistic/functional doctor? They can check all kinds of things that may be causing your anxiety that normal doctors wont.
How do I get out of "freeze" response???
So freeze can come in the form of dissociation?
This is me. 😢
Just an out of context question, can intrusive thoughts be about some impossible things that are really disturbing and scare you? And you feel shame for thinking those kind of things
Hi .I am depressed .Sucidal thoughts are comming in my mind.Help me
