from Complex PTSD Recovery [Reports]: We Are Traumatized Motherfuckers · host CPTSD, Complex Trauma, Generational PTSD, Relational Trauma
So we all have a penchant for fear, it's a foundational aspect of PTSD. But what happens when our brain relay system is wonky due to those adaptations? Let's talk about the faulty DMN. How it throws us into disjointed memories, disables continuous autobiographical recall, explains poor sense of somatic (bodily) self, and interacts with those pesky sub-sensory threshold fear triggers. Reflect on this one, it'll explain a lot. Related eps: DMN ep, entrapment series, developmental biology and disassociation eps across seasons
