YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

If you’re Fearful Avoidant, the back-and-forth between craving closeness and needing distance isn’t “drama” or self-sabotage. It’s what happens when your nervous system learned early on that connection didn’t always feel safe.

Your body may swing between hyper-alert modes (over-defending, people-pleasing, shutting down) and total exhaustion, not because something is wrong with you, but because your system has been working overtime for years.

The good news? When you learn how to calm your body, process stored emotional stress, and create internal safety, those patterns don’t have to run the show anymore. Healing happens at the nervous system level — and it’s learnable.

Do you notice yourself feeling “on edge” in connection, then completely drained or shut down afterward?
