Sadness Feels Lonely? Here's What's Actually Happening

Описание: You've been told sadness is something to push through. Something to fix. But when it shows up, it doesn't just feel heavy—it feels isolating. Like you're the only one carrying it. Like no one can reach you, even when they're right there.
That's not random. And it's not a sign that something's wrong with you.
Sadness was designed to bring people closer. It's a signal—meant to say, "I need presence." But for a lot of people, sadness got linked with something else early on: abandonment. Being left alone with it. Being told to calm down before anyone asked what was wrong. Learning that showing pain didn't bring comfort—it brought silence, or worse.
So your nervous system learned to associate sadness with isolation. And now, even when you're not alone, sadness still feels like being stranded. Because in your body, the two became the same thing.
This video isn't about fixing that. It's about understanding why it happened—and what shifts when sadness doesn't have to mean alone anymore.
