Burnout symptoms? Chemical dependence not being satisfied? Hormones?

[–] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 months ago

A lot of things can, social anxiety, autsim, and grieving are probably the three most likely.

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 3 months ago

Anxiety disorder? Panic disorder? PTSD? Probably best to start with a medical doctor, then a psychologist if needed.

[–] solrize@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Psychological or possibly medical disorders. There is a whole branch of clinical practice to deal with this. It might or might not help, but it probably beats asking the internet.

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 5 points 3 months ago

Sounds like PTSD to me. Your fight/flight mode is getting switched randomly to flight. For me it was "freeze".

Without more information, it's hard to say. Medical conditions like thyroid disorders, or substance use could play a role. Psychologically, those symptoms could be attributed to anxiety or trauma related disorders. You may find it helpful to start by keeping notes about when/where/etc these bouts occur, as there may be underlying patterns that you haven't noticed yet. I would recommend doing some reading on "emotional flashbacks" and consider whether you relate to what you find

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Anxiety is the most common cause of this. For further details seek professional help.

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Exhaustion.

Drug addiction? Trauma? Brain tumor? Cold temperatures?

[–] TokenEffort@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don't do drugs ever. I do have twenty years of trauma though 🎊

Hopefully I don't have a brain tumor.

I like the cold especially when the snow pelts my face while I ride on an electric scooter

As someone currently dealing with processing past trauma; It’s the fucking trauma.

[–] rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

Season it with a little hypervigilance

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago

Fucking annoying how often it’s the trauma, really.

[–] i_dont_want_to@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago

It could be a lot of things. This usually happens to me because of feelings I haven't really processed, just shoved down.
