Adaptive Protective Responses (iFS)

iFS helps a person get space from those like internal reactions so that you can and start to work with the pain that's there. The aim of iFS is really to try to help them alleviate the emotional pain that may have gotten triggered by a certain situation. So it could be like oh i spent too much time on the internet or it can go really more intense and be in the realm of like suicidal thoughts or self-harm using alcohol drugs things like that. We're just looking at the function again so like is it preventative or is it reacting to something and trying to get you out of that pain to soothe or just distract you?
