Water sustains your blood pressure so it isn't swinging as wildly. However much water a day you're drinking isn't enough. It's usually that the fast-acting twin is the overachiever while the slow-and-steady twin is a bit lazy, taking his time to show up and help out in bringing you back to homeostasis.Įven if you don't meet the clinical criteria for Dysautonomia/POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), you can use their accommodations. The parasympathetic system manages the slow and steady stuff like hunger, digestion, pooping and peeing, arousal, sleep ( feed, breed, rest, and digest). The neurological system is like twins-the sympathetic system manages all the quick changes like sweating, heartrate, eye dilation, blood pressure, stuff like that ( fight or flight). When you stand up (plummeting BP and soaring HR=less air) and stay in that instantaneous place instead for minutes, your ability to speak/sing (needing more air) becomes a challenge where few others seem to understand what you could find difficult. When the heartrate is supposed to increase, it soars. When the blood pressure is supposed to drop, it plummets. The neurological system controlling it all is so fast they don't know it happens and is normal.īut some people are neurological overachievers. When they stand up, the blood quickly rushes to the feet which reduces the blood pressure so the heart speeds up to pump the blood back up to the brain. It's a thing!
