I Wasn’t Crazy. I Was Stuck in Survival Mode.

I spent years thinking I was just intense or broken. Angry at nothing, anxious over everything, numb when I should have felt alive. I was cycling through rage, panic, and shutdown daily, blaming myself for not being stronger or better or less fucked up.

Turns out, none of it was me. It was my nervous system stuck in permanent fight or flight after therapist abuse, emotional chaos, and relentless psychological manipulation.

It wasn’t my personality—it was trauma.

And you don’t fix trauma with willpower. You fix it with clarity.

So I built The Nervous System Compass, a simple and powerful tool that instantly shows you whether you’re in Fight, Flight, Freeze, or Fawn mode—and exactly how to get back to safety.

Your nervous system isn’t trying to hurt you. It’s trying to protect you from things you’ve already survived.

You’re not broken, you’re dysregulated. That’s not weakness, it’s biology. And you deserve to feel safe in your body again.

You’re not crazy. You’re surviving. And now, it’s time to feel safe enough to live again.

I’m rooting for you.
