wreckednervoussystem hashtag performance

The hashtag #wreckednervoussystem highlights the impact of stress, anxiety, burnout, and trauma on mental health, promoting awareness, healing practices, self-care, and community support for those navigating nervous system dysregulation.
I remember distinctly having no idea what was going on with me. I felt exhausted, anxious, and overwhelmed, like my body was on overdrive, but I couldn’t explain why. It got so bad that I ended up in the doctor’s office. Unfortunately, I left with a script and no real answers. That’s when I started digging and found accounts like this one @overcomingfightorflight talking about a wrecked nervous system. Suddenly, everything started making sense. There’s a difference between going through a season of stress and your body being stuck in fight or flight mode. Fight or flight is your body’s natural survival response—it kicks in during danger to help you react. But you are not meant to live in this state so if your nervous system gets stuck in this state, even when there’s no immediate threat, it can cause serious long-term effects. Here are 5 signs your body might be stuck in fight or flight, not just handling temporary stress: 1️⃣ Chronic Physical Symptoms • Tight muscles, digestive issues, or a constantly racing heart. 2️⃣ Difficulty Relaxing or Sleeping • You feel restless or can’t shut off your thoughts, even in calm moments. You wake up in the middle of the night staring at the ceiling. 3️⃣ Emotional Dysregulation • You’re overly irritable, anxious, or emotionally reactive. Loud noise overstimulates you. 4️⃣ Fatigue Despite Rest • You’re always tired, no matter how much sleep you get, and may feel brain fog. 5️⃣ Overactive Nervous System Responses • You’re jumpy, hypervigilant, sweating, or shaking for no reason. Trouble regulating body temperature. When I finally understood this, I realized I needed to support my nervous system instead of just “pushing through.” The number one way to heal is to keep your body in a calming state. Click the follow button because I am going to continue to share all the ways in my reels. Is it just stress 💜, or is your body stuck in fight or flight❤️? Drop a colored heart in the comments to let me know. #fightorflight #fightorflightresponses #chronicstress #wreckednervoussystem #dysregulatednervoussystem #fightorflightour

Try this simple technique to calm your mind and body in minutes: massage behind your ear! Behind your ear, lies the vagus nerve. It's like the body's "calm button," controlling your rest-and-digest mode that runs from the brain down to your gut. The vagus nerve helps slow your heart rate, lower blood pressure, and decrease the release of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. This physiological response is essential for reducing symptoms that come with anxiousness. By massaging this spot, you activate the vagus nerve. It tells your body to chill out-slowing your heart rate, lowering stress hormones, and bringing you back to balance. How to Perform the Massage: 1. Locate the Area: The vagus nerve branches are accessible just behind the earlobes 2. Use Gentle Pressure: With clean hands, use your fingertips to apply light, circular pressure in this region. 3. Breathe Deeply: Pair the massage with deep, slow breaths to further enhance the parasympathetic response. 4. Duration: Massage for 2-5 minutes, focusing on slow movements. It's a quick, natural way to stop anxiousness in its tracks and feel grounded again. When life feels overwhelming, pause, take a deep breath, and try this. You've got this! Follow @overcomingfightorflight for more tips to helping to get your body out of fight or flight and eliminating anxiousness. #VagusNerve #NaturalCalm #SimpleWellnessTips #stopanxiousness #calmrelief #settlemedown #massagevagusnerve #vagusnervemassage #tipstocalmdown #fightorflight #wreckednervoussystem
