The Nervous System Does Not Speak Logic, It Speaks Safety

You can explain everything perfectly and still feel terrified.

You can understand the facts, trust the data, believe the doctors, know the odds, repeat affirmations, and tell yourself you are safe.

And yet your body refuses to calm down.

This is not weakness.
This is not overthinking.
This is biology.

The nervous system does not respond to logic. It responds to safety.
