Why Adrenaline Can Feel Like Peace (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is a type of person every A&E department knows well. The colleague who is scattered on a quiet shift and flawless in a resus call. The client who cannot sit still in peacetime but goes completely steady the moment something actually goes wrong.If you have ever noticed that you feel calmest in a crisis, or that you seek out the very intensity that should stress you, you are not broken and you are not an adrenaline junkie in the tabloid sense. You are running a nervous system that makes a st
When Rejection Gets Under Your Skin (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some people can shrug off a cold reply. Others replay it for three days.We usually explain that difference with psychology. Depending who you ask, they may justify it by: attachment history, core beliefs, early experiences of criticism or exclusion. All of that is true, and none of it is the whole story. Because rejection sensitivity is not only in your mind. It is in your blood.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qpmi!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl

It’s the urge to change the sub
When Your Body Feels Alone Even If You’re Not (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You can be wrapped in someone’s arms and still feel the hollow ache of aloneness. Sometimes, lying beside another or sharing a meal across the table, the longing can still grow sharper than it does in the quiet moment scrolling through your phone at midnight.It’s a confusing kind of ache, isn’t it? We’re taught that loneliness is just a numbers game, a lack of bodies in the room. But that story rarely fits the shape of our hearts.The room can be brimming with laughter, yet your inner world quiet
The Cycle That's Destroying Your Relationship Has Nothing To Do With Love. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This post is about that language.You might be reading this after an argument.Or after a silence that has gone on slightly too long, or in that particular kind of alone that happens when someone is physically in the same room as you and somehow completely unreachable. If you are, I want you to know that what you are sitting with right now is not evidence that something is broken beyond repair. It is evidence that two nervous systems are trying to get safe in opposite directions and don’t yet have
