Courage is being afraid and facing the fear

Love all this dopamine talk. It’s addicting.

[Shortstacksandticktacks]

I've been doing therapy and started doing this, using direct eye contact, turning my body toward a threatening person, and leaning slightly in. It looks subtle, and I stay polite, but it has a profound effect on the other person.

About 10 years ago when I worked in marketing at this small university there was the sound of a gunshot out in the hallway. We worked in a 148 year old historic building with massive ceilings and hard stone floors so it was LOUD. Everyone in my meeting ducked beneath the table.

Before I could think, I was out in the hallway and came face to face with the other guy in the building that also has ADHD. 😂

One of the massive lightbulbs in the massive antique chandelier blew out.

I think that was the single biggest dump of dopamine I’ve had in my entire life. I felt phenomenal the rest of the day.

Feel the fear and do it anyway. That is somewhat like what’s being said here. And yes your confidence rises. That becomes your reward. Even if it’s just a baby step toward the fear. Try it!

[kkgx]

I feel like this too. It’s only getting better when I face my childhood trauma. Thank u for explanation!

[levigarrett]

I work at a gas station and I was robbed at gunpoint and forced to lay on my stomach on the floor. It's amazing how your survival instinct kicks in and helps you to remain calm in order to survive. They caught him less than 48 hours later and I feel like it has made me a stronger person.

This is how I did CBT for my needle phobia. It’s done gradually. First you are shown the ‘threat’ from a distance. Then they bring it close to you. Then you need to go to it yourself. Finally you make contact with the threat. Part of what really got me over the phobia was looking at it when I got the needle, instead of trying to look away.

[elsh]

This makes a LOT of sense out of some of my behaviours in the face of abuse and threats that has had me quite baffled.

I stay pretty calm... until I'm not. It's like a switch flicks and then I take on the treat like I'm invincible!

[Spidaface]

This is why I run jump immediately to any type of confrontation 😮

[hildaloves]

I overcame agoraphobia by slowly going out of my house for walks and went further each time. The only way out is through.

[Motivationtowinnn]

But eventually the peace you will get is worth it

[natjudge]

When my father attacked me (he has advanced ALZ) I resisted his advances and tried to maintain some distance. But eventually I had no choice. I had to fight back and defend myself. Obviously a terribly traumatic experience, but I'm proud of my response and I think he would have been too. It certainly registers fairly positively when you choose fight instead of freeze.

[msbutterflyz]

That's why people who freeze during a traumatic experience suffer the most.

[HA-ufir]

He is so attractive and handsome! Love the shirt.

[sJerm]

Proven scientifically, very awesome, Doc!!! Way to relay the hope that facing our fears and taking decided action towards them taps us into dopamine reward feelings our bodies love coolness!!!

[javierarias]

I can say this is true when I finally conquered my fear of swimming in large bodies of water when I swam in the Atlantic Ocean, freaky as hell, but I ended up loving it

[mdhlh]

When is the dopamine released, while in pursuit of threat or after threat has been cleared? Love this explanation…as a therapist using CBT and EMDR, it helps validate these treatment modalities and helps buy in with clients on why it will work! Thanks for all your information. You have changed the way I practice therapy!

[MBuck-iwqn]

This is so interesting!!!! and amazing!!

[breezaround]

soo us adhd/autistic people are often uniquely wired to handle threats and trauma, sounds like to me...I've instinctively moved towards threats since very young
