Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- The instant a feeling hits I’m already inside it, reacting before I’ve had a single second to choose
- I’ve stopped myself from reacting, but I’m still standing right there in it
- Something just set me off and I can’t even untangle what I’m feeling from what actually happened
- The fear tells me to avoid and the hurt tells me to lash out, and every time I obey the urge it just feeds the feeling bigger
- I’m so flooded right now I can’t think
