Discomfort or Harm

Not everything uncomfortable is harmful.
Not everything harmful feels dramatic.

This tool isn’t here to tell you which is which.

You might gently notice:

    1. Did you feel steadier afterward — or more unsettled?
    2. Did you feel pressure to push past your own limits?
    3. Did things feel clearer — or more confusing?

You don’t need answers.
You’re just noticing what’s present.

You can pause here, move to the next section, or close the page — whatever feels right.
