It kind of went from unwanted, focused, intense, violent muscle contractures to full freeze state to extreme pain, then to nervous lightning storms anywhere and everywhere to feeling like I was having a heart attack. The whole time it felt like being connected to a low level electrical pulse...

Oh - dunno if you've tried chewing gum.... it's been keeping me from vomiting this week. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Also ice cream or popsicles, which might be easier to carry around in the winter? 🤣

What's the message button for then? #sonew

Depends on the type. I have several kinds I use for different things... one to avoid panic attacks (high CBD, low THC), one to sleep (high THC), and one for panicky dissociation (mid line or hybrid). I make my own oils and edibles and find them much more reliable or predictable than the stuff...

Omg right?!?! I'd say try YouTube, but the discipline and "theory" is as important as the motions. Tai Chi may help? That feels pretty replicate via YouTube... :/

With you. I recommend moving if that's relieving for you. I one hundred percent would move if the cause of my nice new brain were any closer than 200km! I moved four times in six months before I found a place where I felt safer than my usual safe place. Feeling safe is foundational for recovery...

Best book I've read on this is 'Why Does He Do That' by Lundy Bancroft. It's available for free in pdf, but I'd have to see if I can link it here. There are other excellent published resources, but WDHDT really skips the bullshit and gets straight to responsibility. Required reading imo.
