Topic

    Nervous system, burnout and self worth, the body keeping the score of a life that looks fine

    For capable people who are functioning well and quietly running on empty.

    Question

    Sustained pressure reshapes the nervous system's baseline. The body begins to treat urgency as normal, recovery as suspicious and stillness as unsafe. These books explore why this happens, what it costs and what genuine repair requires.
