Why Do I Act Like a 6-Year-Old?
Ever get into an argument with your spouse and suddenly feel small, powerless, or irrationally angry? That’s the Origin Protocol at work.
When we are triggered, our brain often reverts to the coping mechanisms we learned as children.
- Did you hide to stay safe? (Withdrawal)
- Did you yell to be heard? (Escalation)
- Did you perform to be loved? (People Pleasing)
Growth Tip: The next time you react big, ask: "How old do I feel right now?" Identifying the age helps you snap back to the present.
