Yes. Freeze is my go-to response. I am a master at it but I’ve been working hard to rewire my system and heal.

I froze when that man attacked me that day. he approached me with kindness to ensure that I approached him, and not him towards me. as soon as we found ourselves alone he changed, I was 13 years old. he could have been my father's age. Finding myself with no escape route I stiffened, we were in absolute nothingness. in an uncultivated field owned by his family. I didn't scream. I didn't say anything. I didn't even lift a finger. it hurts so much to think that I didn't defend myself in any way. I feel like shit. How can this be remedied? I would like to rip it out of my brain.

I feel like my life can't move forward. I start and feel I am conducting my life in a 'normal' way taking action and looking after things, engaged with friends and family and the world but it never lasts for long. I return to the unable to do anything state. It is accompanied by fatigue, anxiety and depression. It's in a loop of being out for a time but only to fall back. A constant one step forward and two steps back. It was born out of a period in my life when I was under constant anxiety. A nasty divorce, bankruptcy, severely sick children, and having no home. I am not able to get out of the cycle.
