It's 8 PM. You've been frozen on the couch for hours. You're screaming inside to move... but you can't. This isn't laziness—it's Functional Freeze.


In this video, we explore:
What "Functional Freeze" actually is (and why it's not your fault)
The survival mechanism that makes you "play dead" emotionally
Why modern life triggers your freeze response
The Window of Tolerance and hypo-arousal
How shame makes the freeze worse
Practical techniques to thaw yourself (Temperature Shock, Micro-movements)
Permission to stop calling yourself lazy

If you're the person who can go to work and function... but the second you get home, you collapse into paralysis—this video explains why.

💬 If you're stuck right now, type "I'm thawing" in the comments. You're not alone.
