Caroline Strawson on Instagram: "The freeze response is a type of trauma response that is activated when your body perceives a threat and is unable to fight or flee from it.🥶 During the freeze response, your body releases hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline, which can increase heart rate and blood pressure. The freeze response also causes the muscles to tense up, which can lead to stiffness and rigidity. In freeze mode, the nervous system activates the parasympathetic branch, dorsal vagal nerve, which slows down the heart rate, decreases blood pressure, and conserves energy. Freeze mode can cause a feeling of dissociation, where you may feel like you are disconnected from your body and surroundings. It is a protective response even if you wish it wasn’t there.
