Now I know you are probably wondering what freeze and fawn are, and why we don't hear about them as often, well that's what we will dig into today, so stay tuned. Let's start out by explaining what our stress response is. Whenever our nervous system believes that we are threatened either physically or emotionally (and it doesn't matter if we are truly at risk or not, we just have to think we are), like if we think someone could attack us, or if the situation at hand requires more resources then we have, we can be pushed into fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. Being pushed into this state causes our amygdala and entire limbic system to sound the alarm. This change in our brain focuses our body on survival and takes the planning and more organized part of our brain, our prefrontal cortex, offline. This can cause us to feel on edge, act impulsively, and even feel overwhelmed emotionally. It's supposed to be short lived, save us from a perceived threat, and then go away, but for many of us it can last for much much longer.

Seeing a Therapist for the first time can be (but shouldn't be) stressful. Some of the questions you might be wondering about are: What do you do at your first therapy session? What questions does a therapist ask? What should I not tell my therapist? Is it okay to cry in therapy? How much should you tell your therapist? What should you tell your first visit to a therapist? How should a therapy session go? Can therapists tell our parents anything?

Depression isn’t just feeling down, or not as motivated as you used to, although those experiences can be part of it, it’s not the full picture. Major depressive disorder is characterized by 5 or more of the following symptoms, but you must have either a loss of interest or pleasure or a depressed mood. The other symptoms are changes in weight (appetite disturbance), sleep disturbance (sleeping a lot or not at all), psychomotor agitation or retardation (which really just means that we are either moving more or less than normal), fatigue or loss of energy nearly every day, feelings of worthlessness or excessive or inappropriate guilt nea
