This result reflects a primary Chaser pattern, with Spiral tendencies as a secondary survival response. Your nervous system is wired to reach, seek, and pursue connection — but when closeness feels threatened, it can tip into emotional flooding and protest behaviors.
At the core, you’re driven by the Chaser: someone who craves closeness, reassurance, and emotional reciprocity. You often feel more at ease when the connection feels solid — when texts are returned quickly, when emotions are mirrored, when things feel mutual. But the moment uncertainty creeps in, your system activates. You might double-text, over-explain, or try to fix it fast, all in an effort to get back to secure ground.
Beneath that urgency lives your Spiral pattern — the part of you that doesn’t just feel big emotions, but gets swept up in them. You may notice sudden waves of panic, impulsive reactions, or emotional outbursts when you're feeling dismissed or abandoned. It’s not drama — it’s your body signaling, “Something feels off, and I don’t know how to hold it.”
This pairing creates a powerful emotional charge. You long for closeness, but when things wobble, it’s not just a worry — it feels existential. One part reaches with hope, while the other braces for heartbreak. You’re not needy or broken — you’ve just been wired to work extra hard to be chosen, heard, and held.
Your core wound is emotional inconsistency — early experiences where love felt unstable, conditional, or confusing. As a result, you learned two powerful strategies: first, to chase what feels good; and second, to panic when it starts to slip away.
✨ The good news? These are nervous system adaptations, not permanent truths. With the right tools, you can learn to hold your emotional waves without spiraling, and ask for connection without overreaching.
