Trauma Blocking Behaviors: Distraction
And we can't entertain our way to healing. We can't entertain our way to a place of feeling better, of being comforted. And so one thing about us as humans is that we will try to do anything we can to gravitate away from pain. That's how we're created. We're created to navigate away from pain. And we are created to draw to things that are healing, that are comforting, that feel good to our sensory realm. And so we don't like pain

Hello, Tanya. Thank you so much for that information. I'm very familiar with the behaviors. I just never heard it described. Trauma, blocking behaviors, distraction. That's pretty interesting. I used to be like that, and I know people that used to be like that and people that still are like that, just always trying to find something to dumb out the pain or try to find something to do to keep from thinking about it or to keep from addressing it
