Structural authority blocks bilateral regulation by forcing lower ranks into threat monitoring, requiring explicit separation of evaluation from presence.
Shared domestic regulation requires updating defensive internal templates through repeated low-stakes reliance and structured daily physical predictability.
Solitary focus shifts the central nervous system to high sympathetic tone, causing domestic co-presence to initially register as an unexpected sensory load.
Functioning as a primary relational regulator suppresses autonomic recovery and elevates metabolic expenditure by replacing co-regulatory relief with solo buffering.
Myelinated ventral vagal fibers slow cardiac rhythm when physical co-presence carries zero evaluative or communicative demand, lowering metabolic regulation costs.
Prolonged isolation dismantles autonomic receptive capacity by down-regulating vagal circuits, converting co-regulation into a perceived metabolic threat.
The terms are written where they belong. Each field holds three desks, and every entry a desk writes raises the terms it uses, each term given a meaning, a mechanism and the places it appears. The record on these pages stays first person and hand made; the fields grow the nomenclature.
