Hyposensitivity
Hyposensitivity is a reduced response to sensory or internal stimuli compared to the typical level of sensation.
Definition
Hyposensitivity may concern external stimuli, such as touch, sound or movement, or internal signals, such as fatigue, hunger or tension. It is sometimes discussed in the context of sensory processing and interoception. In practice, it is not a label for a person, but a description of how the nervous system responds in specific areas.
Key ideas
- Obniżona reakcja na bodźce
- Przetwarzanie sensoryczne
- Sygnały ciała
Practice and life
For a week, note your body signals three times a day: hunger, thirst, tension, fatigue. The goal is to increase contact with information, not to judge yourself.
Common misunderstanding
It is a mistake to diagnose yourself based solely on one symptom. Long-lasting or disruptive sensory difficulties should be discussed with a specialist.
Questions for self-reflection
- Których sygnałów często nie zauważam na czas?
- Czy potrzebuję mocniejszego bodźca, żeby zareagować?
- Jak mogę regularnie sprawdzać stan ciała?
