Understanding Anxiety and Its Sources
Anxiety is characterized by a combination of bodily sensations and a feeling of lack of personal power. Conditions such as rapid heartbeat, clenching gut, or numbness can signal anxiety, paired with thoughts spiraling into worst-case scenarios. These reactions indicate an autonomic response reflecting our sense of control or disempowerment, contrasting with the excitement one might feel in a thrilling situation. By examining trauma-informed neuroscience, it is revealed that anxiety often stems from adaptations to overwhelming experiences, suggesting a deeper understanding of its roots beyond traditional medical conclusions.
