Is it possible to help regulate very dishonest a special needs adult with a child IQ who cannot identify their emotions at all. They have shaking panic attacks when not getting things that make him feel safe. Junk food
@@youknow1334 - Yes. Emotional freedom Techniques, Thought field therapy, EMDR and Energy Medicine are interventions that work well for this and I have used them successfully with individuals with intellectual disabilities. These interventions help the mind, body and survival system quickly and effectively work together to process fear, panic and any other emotion so that symptoms like panic attacks resolve. While using these, we’re helping to resolve any emotion moving through the person’s system at that specific moment. We don’t have to be conscious of the emotion to help the body process it. There are many advanced or specific strategies using these interventions that heavily rely on one’s ability to observe, identify and acknowledge thoughts, feelings or events. But to resolve those kinds of panic attacks basic use of these interventions, would work quickly to resolve these. It would just be a matter of how they would apply the intervention and if they needed assistance applying these or some other customized-for-them strategy for application.
Excellent as far as explaining and describing what’s going in. Would love to see a class on what do to with the information as far as moving on to the self help “phase”. We got the information, we understand the problem, now what?
I do have exactly such a class where I teach how to get your brain to resolve symptoms for you. It requires you to work a bit differently with the brain than what we’re used to in traditional talk therapy. I teach 3 different and effective ways of working with our brain in this free training program: rachellemccloud.thrivecart.com/interventions-for-iwt-yt/

@@rachellemccloudlcsw Hi. thanks for the quick reply. While I absolutely have what you describe in that post, the "need" to keep busy to avoid having to face ongoing stressors or having to deal with unresolved issues (for which for post may be helpful), there is something else also. I think what I am asking about is not a fear of dealing with the issues I carry now, it is a learned survival 'skill' from my childhood that I believe makes perfect sense logically - it is a survival adaptation. In addition to emotional and physical neglect throughout my childhood, there was a period where I was frequently physically punished - to the point that I was afraid all the time. This led me to be hypervigilant - constantly alert to what I am doing, saying, the emotions I am expressing ... constantly alert to the mood of my mother and step-father ... My body learn that the only way to be safe was to maintain the constantly alert state so that I didn't make any mistake that wold result in painful physical punishment. The issue I have now is that any attempt to relax is seen by my body as an immediate physical threat ... I can only be safe if I am ALWAYS alert. This manifests as;- 1. An anxiety response. My therapist, in preparation for an IFS session asked my to get myself relaxed, and my body responded with a strong anxiety response. 2. If i ever try to meditate or otherwise calm myself, I become very dizzy. not a vertigo type dizzy, it is more like the feeling that my head is shaking side to side as a 'no'. but my head is not moving. I have had this all my life. there is some subconscious 'thing' that doesn't want me to drop the hypervigilant state. I have seen other videos of yours that describe the required downregulation for us to feel calm - but not only can I not do this as I will then have to deal with the painful thoughts that come up, but there is this more 'survival' aspect that would stop me getting anywhere near a 'relaxed' state. I hope I have explained that ok! (and thanks for taking the time to read this!)
