Your parent's unresolved trauma became the invisible blueprint 🗺️ for how you learned to navigate the world. Their exaggerated responses weren't about you—but your developing mind 🧠 learned to interpret it that way. You became fluent in their trauma worldview, constantly scanning for the same dangers they carried, even when those threats weren't present in your reality. This gave you an extraordinary ability to read people's pain and anticipate emotional storms before they hit ⛈️.<br><br>But now you struggle to distinguish between authentic dangers and the inherited `intergenerational alarm system` running in the background. Your threat radar is set to the frequency that long stopped broadcasting 📡. You overreact to news events 📰－but ignore genuine personal dangers. You carry a sense that the world is fundamentally unsafe—not because of your own mature reflections, but because this was imprinted in your nervous system before you had a chance to form your own relationship with reality.
