Childhood Coping Becomes Adult Pattern
- Early childhood coping shapes adult personality into five recurring patterns: Leaving, Merging, Enduring, Aggressive, and Rigid.
- These patterns arise from immature strategies kids use to survive intense experiences and then persist into relationships.
Merging Is Hyper‑Attunement And Dependency
- Merging types stay hyper-attuned to others and either collapse to get rescued or compensate by over-helping.
- Their strength is interpersonal sensitivity but it creates dependence and difficulty owning personal needs.
Enduring Means Grounded Resistance
- Enduring types ground themselves and tolerate pressure by hunkering down, appearing steady but resisting external agendas.
- Their gift is stability in crisis, and their blind spot is chronic self-sabotage and hidden resistance.
