10 Common Signs of Nervous System Dysregulation:
Trouble focusing and having a mind that runs a million miles a minute. Difficulty setting clear boundaries and getting needs met, and/or staying in toxic relationships. Feeling numbed out, dissociated, dis-embodied, and not connected to the present moment (aka: depersonalization, derealization). Low confidence or self-worth that gets in the way of being authentic and courageous and moving forward in life (in small and big ways). Irrational fears, phobias, resistance, and procrastination. Trouble expressing anger – either not at all, or way too much! Trouble sleeping or staying asleep (or the opposite: needing A LOT of sleep but never feeling rested). Stubborn health issues such as chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, fibromyalgia, migraine headaches, severe PMS, CFS, IBS. Feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or even completely exhausted, often with signs of adrenal fatigue. Feelings of anxiety and/or depression that zap your energy.
