I am experiencing a headache (which feels like my head is in a vice)
my jaw is tight but I also feel like I need to throw up (I feel this is a bit of a metaphor of needing to let let, but resisting by clenching tight)
one hand is clenched
my “Danger Will Robinson, danger” messages from my nervous system are in high gear
what do you notice in overwhelm.

Teeth grinding, clench fists and jaw clenching. Not very nice at all. Hope it will pass soon for you xx |

I feel anxious, light headed and nauseous and usually my teeth chatter. I always want to go to bed and pull the covers over my head and wake up in a week, it's almost like I want to be invisible... It's fear I think |

I feel it in my chest and gut. Increased heart rate, sometimes palpitations, and a generally queasy feeling that borders on nausea at its worst.
In my head, I experiences obsessive, racing thoughts and an inability to focus. It's a panicky feeling so intolerable that I must get relief NOW -- and since I can't calm myself, I feel a powerful impulse to seek external regulation. In this state, it takes tremendous self-control not to give in to protest behavior, which very often escalates quickly to self-sabotage.
