17. The Shutdown Response is actually depression, depersonalization, and total hopelessness
I don't believe 'depression', 'dissociative identity', or 'treatment resistant' are labels you're meant to carry around with you for life. I believe they are long-term states of the nervous system that we become stuck in. I believe that as we form a relationship with our nervous systems we can release traumatic stress and completely resolve depression and its many counterparts.

Thankfully, you can SHOW your nervous system that it is now safe, free, and able to rest with the tools I share in this episode. Ready to unlearn...
