I just Saw this and I Think it is kind of sweet:
..... dealing with people in a sympathetic state (or even a dorsal vagal state) we can be carefull not to shame them for being irritable or angry or withdrawn etc.
The response could be with compassion and understanding and more of a "oh hey your nervous system is doing this thing to protect you right now, I wonder what could help you feel a bit safer" or something of the sort.

Can you explain or lead me to a link that tells what sympathetic and dorsal vagal states are, and for what attachment type? Thank you. |

nyc718Try to look in the general diskussion forum (healing therads and other therads from different participants) and the selfregulating thread in the general forum. Your brain is divided into the reptilian brain, the limbic brain and the cocnitive part of your brain (pre frontal cortex) We can all from time to time act from our instinktive part of our brain. (fight, Flight or freeze) in daily life we switch between sympathetic state (fight/flight) to parasympathetic state (rest and digest). When we have got a more dysregulated nerveussystem we can switch or we can get stuck in one state. I am not a fan of dividing people into only one attatchment style, as we often have got traits from different attatchmentstyles. One or two can be more dominant than others.
