Nothing is wrong with you. Early survival mode can look like overwhelm… shutdown… racing thoughts… or not wanting to take in any new information at all. That makes sense. When your nervous system has been shocked by betrayal, its main job is protection… not productivity… not healing… not figuring everything out. Just surviving. So if you keep telling yourself you “should” be doing more… learning more… handling this better… Sometimes the most supportive thing isn’t fixing or deciding or even talk
