� If you are able to stay focused on this page, your thalamus is helping you distinguish between sensory information that is relevant and information that you can safely ignore...

People with PTSD have their floodgates wide open. Lacking a filter, they are on constant sensory overload. In order to cope, they try to shut themselves down... The tragedy is that the price of closing down includes filtering out sources of pleasure and joy, as well.

� Numbing is the other side of the coin in PTSD. Many untreated trauma survivors start out...with explosive flashbacks, then numb out later in life. � � Bessel van der Kolk
