Can you think of a situation where you have identified your survival instinct taking control over you?

War, nothing kicks in survival mode like war.

Yesterday I got a text from somebody very close to me. Complicated connection with a LOT of emotions involved. The text could be interpreted as good or bad.

Normally I see those texts as bad, get all emotional and stressed, so I distance myself from the person.

Yesterday I felt the text as good, loving and caring, so I did not try to escape. My gut instinct is changing.

And only now, with the new instict, I can see how unproductive and distorted my old reactions were. It was completely impossible to analyse myself earlier, when I was in fight or flight – mode, I was paralysed.

But it takes a new perception on a higher level, otherwise we are stuck in survival.

It happens most of the time each and every day. The only question is to what extent it take over. I find that getting exposed to positive and uplifting messages/things really helps balance things out and also help with controlling my toughts and emotions when the negative rushes in.
