Trauma and the Nervous System
How psychological trauma disrupts autonomic regulation, threat appraisal, and the felt sense of safety.
Trauma lives in the body's threat appraisal, not in the event's narrative — the autonomic system holds what the language cannot.
From the LHS Lens, the signature of trauma inheritance is the survival network firing before conscious cognition; recovery begins when the felt signal is named rather than routed around.
