180. Nobody Talks About the Crash After Survival Mode Ends

Hey, Survivor! After years of hypervigilance, stress, trauma, and emotional survival, what happens when the crisis finally ends? In this episode, I’m talking about the physical and emotional “crash” many trauma survivors experience after prolonged periods of stress—including nausea, shaking, exhaustion, emotional numbness, brain fog, and nervous system dysregulation. Following the end of the murder trial I’ve spoken about on this journey, I share what it felt like when my body finally began to come down from years of anticipation and survival mode. It’s similar to what you’d experience after narcissistic abuse, divorce, toxic relationships, and other traumatic situations. If you’ve ever felt strange, exhausted, or emotionally overwhelmed after finally closing a toxic or traumatic chapter, this episode is for you. 🎧 Listen now and remember: “Survival kept you alive. But purpose helps you thrive.” Know who you're dealing with. Know who you are. 💚Lesley Book your call here. Become a Vibrant Survivor insider here. Let's connect on IG!
