When Engagement Doesn’t Register
When engagement doesn’t register, effort meets silence.
Participation happens, but nothing lights up inside.
This is not resistance or refusal; it is non-registration.
Naming this removes pressure to force feeling or responsiveness and allows engagement to remain optional.

Frequently Asked Questions
I’m talking to people and doing my work, but it doesn’t "feel" like I’m there.
This is "Unregistered Engagement." Your brain is processing the data, but it’s not "stamping" it with an emotional signature. Naming this prevents the fear of Dissociation. You are still "there" physically and cognitively; the "Internal Recording" is just muted. This is a Protective Buffer that prevents you from being overwhelmed by too much "signal."
How do I "re-engage" if I don't feel it?
Don't force the feeling. Focus on Output Quality. If the work is done and the conversation is coherent, you have successfully "engaged" at a structural level. In this model, Functional Output is more important than "Internal Registration" during recovery. The "feeling" of being there will return once the system feels safe enough to "record" again.
