Learn to disengage
It's a skill that takes will
You churn
You yearn
Your body sheds
The pain feels like lead
Did you feel it in your stomach?
Some will feel,
they don't know what to do
or who to talk too
Can you even talk,
when it feels like a fork
Then a break
All the pain,
you feel like you,
shovelled in vain,
becomes your rein
Eventually that pain,
takes you to a place that is tame
What is so bad,
is that pain made you so sad
It forms a storm that is warm,
then you feel dawn
Even at this point you may still care
and see the purpose,
of why the path is there,
but you have a human body,
inside where feelings reside
Our bodies feel hurt and pain,
Physiology mechanisms,
are in every living system,
and will always remain
Emotional pain is adaptive,
and the same
An automated response,
which you can never change
Suppression,
but you can't control pain,
in deep regression
It has to spill out
Once you experience it in life,
realise a tool to disengage rule
You inherently go into survival mode
The body searches for the code:

Damage
Ice
Senses
Emotions
Negative
Grace
Allow
Generate
Empty

Is emotion an automatic processing?

According to Zajonc's (1980) affective primacy hypothesis, initial responses to emotional stimuli are automatic and do not necessarily require conscious awareness.

Everybody is an individual.

Everyone copes with emotion differently.

Coping mechanisms can be different for people with disabilities and health conditions.
Learning new skills may need to be adapted.

This is why it is imperative for individuals to be supported with their holistic health and emotional regulation (EQ).

Individuals
Men
Women
People with disabilities or health conditions.
