OM DENNE EPISODE
Processing a traumatic memory can feel like watching a movie of your own life. Learn how the brain uses dissociation to survive.
This video explores the reality of dissociation symptoms during moments of extreme danger. By examining a specific, high-stress incident involving a threat to safety, I explain how the mind creates distance from painful events to protect itself. This breakdown is for anyone trying to understand why their brain reacts to trauma in unexpected ways.
Understanding these mechanisms is a vital step in coping with trauma effectively. When we identify how our minds separate from reality during crises, we gain clarity on our own mental health story and begin to reclaim our narratives. We look at the physiological and psychological responses that occur when fight or flight is triggered, providing a perspective on the mechanics of memory and survival.
