If you have 3+ my account is for you š¤
1. You snap at people over small thingsā¦ and then feel bad because thatās not the kind of person you want to be.
2. You wake up tired even after sleeping all nightā¦ like your body never actually rested.
3. Your patience feels shorter than it used to. Little things suddenly feel overwhelming.
4. Your moods change quicklyā¦ one minute youāre fine, the next you feel anxious or irritated for no clear reason.
5. Your brain feels foggy and scattered. You forget things, lose your train of thought, and even simple tasks feel harder than they should.
6. Your body feels tense, inflamed, or puffyā¦ like stress is sitting in your shoulders, jaw, stomach, or chest all day.
7. You rely on caffeine, sugar, or quick energy boosts just to push through the afternoon because your energy crashes so hard.
8. You feel overstimulated easily. Noise, clutter, or constant demands make your nervous system feel like itās on edge.
9. You miss the version of yourself who used to feel calmer, lighter, and more in controlā¦ and you wonder where she went.
10. You keep telling yourself things will calm down soonā¦ but the overwhelm never actually slows down.
This doesnāt mean youāre failing.
It usually means your body has been stuck in stress mode for too long.
When your body is constantly running on stress hormones, it can affect your mood, sleep, energy, metabolism, and even your ability to lose weight.
For almost 2 years, I felt completely stuck in this cycle.
Once I started supporting my body instead of constantly pushing it harder, everything started shifting.
I ended up losing 27 lbs and going from a size 12/14 in jeans to a size 6.
If you feel like your body has been stuck in survival mode for way too longā¦
