BRAIN STRESS & PRICKLE HABITS
As I explained when you visited, we sometimes describe stress
responses in a different way – we call them ‘Prickle Habits’.
We have found looking at stress responses in this way can feel
more familiar for some young people.
Do you hide and freeze? Do you avoid? Do you run?
Do you throw? Do you mask or bury?
I’m I’m
scared!
Noticing our ‘Prickle Habits’ is the first step to taking charge of
them and then feeling and doing better.
