I’m just learning I’m an hsp. It explains why I’ve always been so emotional and fearful. I’m trying to soak up as much information as possible to learn how to navigate my life with this trait vs trying to overcome it. Thank you for this brief explanation of emotional flooding, It’s nice to have a name for it.

Great reminder to notice, easily overlooked action that can help ground and soothe when we’re overwhelmed. Thank you, Anita!

Thank you so much ! I needed to listen to this today .

This was very helpful. I tend to let peoples emotions overwhelm me. When I realize I’m flooded, if I can, I go somewhere private, I feel everything, and I let loose, I feel every emotion that I took on. I’ll sob until I feel a release. Then I’m exhausted, it could last all day. I’ve always needed help with not letting my waves turn into a flood. Thank you.

Very recognisable!!
I do usually notice, since I learned about adrenalin being so bad for ME-patients.
Except that's the bigger problem : after the flooding it takes hours to days for the adrenalin to leave our poisoned body... 😏
But the sooner we notice, the sooner we're high on adrenalin, the sooner we can try to detox again (over and over)
