we had an earthquake
Maybe half hour ago we had an earthquake, small really, it shook up the place
pretty good and set off some car alarms but thats about it. they never used to
bother me, I was raised with them and slept through most of them, but since the
quake in 89, I try not to panic but still go right into that flight or fight
kind of thing, but I noticed that it dosnt seem possible to cog when that kind
of thing is happening. I mean to the point of recognizing the physical
sensations, I could do that and the only emotion that occured to me was terror.
but I really wasnt able to tell right then, but those physical sensations,
when it was slowing down I could feel those knotted muscles kind of letting go a
bit and this part of me thinking cigarette now please. but not demanding like
alot of the time.
it was thought and physical sensation, relief too , but the emotional part of it
wasnt what was causing that trigger that was trying to get set off, it was the
physical…… . I usually notice the emotional stuff rather then the physical
first… chosing a different response was fairly simple even without the abc cuz
I had worked similar stuff before. I just found it a bit strange is all.
