Episode 37: Stuck in Your Head: When You Can’t See Past the Pain

Tunnel vision is  a survival response and when it shows up outside of real danger, it can quietly turn destructive.

In this episode, we talk about what happens when the brain narrows its focus under stress, depression, anxiety, or trauma and why losing perspective can make pain feel permanent. We explore why some people get stuck there and what it really takes to interrupt the spiral.
