This faulty regulation systems fuels many self-soothing behaviors (some of which are far healthier than others). It's like trying to push the car from behind when it's stuck in snow or crashing it into a bush to slow it when the brakes fail. Addictions, eating disorders, self-mutilation - these are all similar attempts and just as inelegant as trying to make a car without working parts run. Is it possible? Yes. Is it optimal or safe or going to look fabulous? Not usually or for long at least unless the parts get fixed.

Fisher believes that calming a "fear-driven brain" through neurofeedback is a game changer of those with developmental trauma. A “different person arises out of a regulated brain," said Fisher and by different, she's not talking changing political affiliation or sexual orientation, she's talking a person that feels safe as opposed to one who is scared shitless.

Losing the fear means improving the quality of life and by a lot. For those without the low-grade fever of fear, numbness or angst, this might sound scary but for those with trauma, it means the birth of the truest and deepest self - just not terrified.
