Takeaways
Emotional dysregulation can occur in response to stress and can be experienced by anyone, not just those with a personality disorder.
The window of tolerance refers to our ability to handle stress and stay regulated. When our baseline stress level is high, our window of tolerance narrows, making it easier to become dysregulated.
Past trauma and biological factors, such as epigenetics, can contribute to emotional dysregulation.
Finding balance and effective communication is key to managing emotions and maintaining healthy relationships.
Tools for managing emotions in the moment include the dive reflex, paced breathing, muscle relaxation, and meditation.
Therapy, particularly dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), can be helpful for learning emotional regulation skills.
