As far as I know all cortisol does is to
prepare you in emergencies in an instant
to act really fast rigth? But they say
when something traumatic happens there's
so much information that you can't handle
and you have to suppress some of them.
But is it really that much information you
can't handle or so much pain cortisol
gives to you (i always feel physical pain
in my head when I get less depressed and
become more aware of myself, i'm pretty
sure most of you don't, and you know it
kills your brain cells which reminds me of
some kind of a poison too
) that you can't handle the pain and want
to disassociate from your feelings of
pain? And isn't it that pain you
disassociated from yourself that causes
the suffering after trauma?
This idea just popped up my mind and I
didn't know where to ask it so I would
appreciate if someone give an answer to
this.
