I’ve just been stuck in it for four years. Never stops, and if I start to on occasion feel it vanishes in seconds. Really sick of it. I did use avoidant protector before though, like always, and I was constantly being triggered (abandonment fears, anger, shame/humiliation, loss/grief). I’m going to check your trauma series!
interesting observation. Overarchingly, dissociation is not a choice. But now that I know I do it, I recognize that "it" is quite nice feeling, a little compelling/interesting. So I can shift my consiousness in that direction. But specific help HOW| to bring myself out would be great
Great video thanks!! It’s really valuable, especially in combination with your other videos, especially for people like me who are reading as much as possible on the subject. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this. Your content has brought light to a problem I've just found out I have. Like you said, I was detaching and not even noticing it. I'll take this to my schema therapist so we can work on it
Would you say that there is a correlation between the frequencies of Detached and Avoidant Protectors? That a person exhibiting one schema is more likely to be using the other one? Or perhaps that Detached Protector is a precursor to Avoidant, like a first line of defense? i.e. "I relied in Detached Protector for a year, it didn't solve my problems, but I've recognized my need for protection, so I'm going to turn the dial up to Avoidant Protector"
Yep, lots of people will use both. Sometimes you’ll be forced to attend something, so if you can’t physically avoid, then you’ll psychologically detach.
I relied on avoidant protector for a while and then strangely moved on to detached protector. This mode is so great cause I don't feel at all and can work pretty well
there is a new feature on youtube that adds a banner on videos from licensed medical professionals to add credibility to the source. I seems to work retroactively as well. Might be worth looking into for your channel.
'Emotional Inhibition Schema'.... Ma'am, could you please highlight upon framing of Socratic questions for guided discovery of this specific schema mode in patients??
I feel like just listening to this video is golf. To change my life now I’m diagnosed with ptsd adhd & borderline but nothing I’ve learnt read audiobooked has reached out to me like this in a way that you literally are saying all my symptoms that have been said to be all these other things x it’s a light bulb money for me a lot has just fixed into place like a jigsaw you have just tel me me x thank you I’m so careful if there’s any way I can get more on all this please reply can’t thank yous enough ♥️
