Stop Performing. You're Exhausted||The High-Functioning Trap, explained with science

Описание: Are you high-functioning… but secretly exhausted?
This video breaks down the toxic positivity trap that keeps high-achievers stuck in survival mode even when everything “looks fine.”

If you're the strong one, the reliable one, the high-performing parent, student, or professional who never falls apart… this is for you. We’re unpacking the 5 lies high-functioning people tell themselves from “it could be worse” to “I don’t have time to feel” and how emotional suppression leads to burnout, shutdown, and the inevitable crash.

You’ll learn:

Why toxic positivity keeps your brain in survival mode

The neuroscience behind emotional suppression

How burnout shows up in high-functioning people

The 90-second rule for processing emotions

How to stop performing wellness and start actually feeling again

This isn’t about being negative. It’s about being honest. Because high-functioning depression doesn’t always look like falling apart, it often looks like holding everything together until you can’t anymore.

If you’ve ever felt empty despite your success… or exhausted from always being the strong one… you’re not alone.
