The Overprotective Brain : How your brain's attempts to protect you are hurting you
Overview
The hardest part isn't the pain.
It's being told there's nothing wrong.
Every treatment is trying to answer the same question:
"What's wrong?"
But what if the better question is:
"Why hasn't your brain realized you're safe?"
Your brain has the capacity to ease your pain. Its job is your protection, and it takes that job seriously. Sometimes too seriously.
When your brain continues to detect danger after the original threat has passed, the same system designed to protect you can start working against your recovery. And the fortress built to keep you safe can slowly become a prison that keeps you trapped.
The Overprotective Brain reveals the surprising science behind how your brain functions and explains why pain, anxiety, fatigue, dizziness, digestive problems, and other persistent symptoms can continue long after healing should have occurred.
This book gives you what no test, scan, or specialist has:
a reason and relief.
"Pain is not a gauge for damage. It is an alarm for protection. And like any alarm, it can be recalibrated."
