QUIZ: Are YOU At All Dysregulated?

190 I made you a special short quiz to determine the level of dysregulation in your unique nervous system.  (This episode goes hand in hand with episode 189, so I highly recommend listening to it first, or after you take the quiz.)

Why should you take it? Because as highly sensitive people (and really, as just regular human beings on this planet in these modern times), our nervous systems are often chronically dysregulated.

And this has a major impact in a not-so-great way on our lives in general and especially on our relationships. So you need to understand if you have a nervous system that is dysregulated chronically or that tends to get easily dysregulated.

Unfortunately this can happen even more easily for us than non-HSPs. 

When we are dysregulated, we react more strongly than we normally would, in one way or another, and that leads to much more drama, much more struggle in our relationships, and a lot less clear, effective communication, a lot less getting through to our spouses, and being able to really hear each other, a lot less open-heartedness and connection, and a lot less feeling the mutual supportiveness and sense of being on the same team.

So there really are many different ways that nervous system dysregulation can show up to the detriment of your relationship and to the detriment of your life in general.

And you do want to know if it is happening for you so that you can make the necessary changes. Because that's the really good news: you have so much sway over your nervous system regulation or dysregulation. It just can take a little bit of learning and attention to it.

Dive in now with pen and paper in hand.
