Heather Irvine-Rundle on Why You Can't Just "Get Over It" (And That's Okay!)
"You didn't know they didn't have a gun. You didn't know what they were capable of."
I had psychologist Heather Irvine-Rundell from The READ Clinic back in the van, and I decided to share a story that messed me up for years. It involved my five-year-old son and a hooded figure trying to break in at 1am. Fun times.
Heather so brilliantly explains what actually happens in our brain during a moment of terror, why you freeze or why you fight - and why you have absolutely no choice in the matter!
We also chat about the unique trauma faced by first responders, the story of the time a police detective told her she'd "lost", and the critical difference between PTSD and Complex PTSD.
***A heads up, this one gets into some heavy topics, so please take care while listening.
If you've ever been shaken by an event and wondered why it affected you so much -and for so long, this episode could help you figure it out.
