Spiral + Stoic
This result reflects a primary Spiral pattern, with Stoic tendencies as a secondary survival strategy. Your nervous system reacts first with intense emotional flooding and overwhelm — then retreats into composed control to manage and contain feelings.
At the core, you’re driven by the Spiral: waves of overwhelming emotion, a deep longing for connection, and a nervous system that signals danger when you feel unsafe or unseen. Your feelings can surge rapidly, sometimes exploding outward or shutting down completely. You crave closeness but when it arrives, it can feel too much and too fast. Your body responds by pushing away, pulling back, or freezing — not out of choice, but survival.
Interwoven with this emotional intensity is your secondary pattern — the Stoic. After the flood of emotion, you switch to calm logic and emotional restraint. You often detach from your feelings, intellectualizing your experience to maintain control. This strategy helped you survive overwhelming emotions growing up but now can leave you feeling disconnected from your deeper self and from others.
Your primary wound comes from emotional abandonment — not just people leaving but feeling emotionally unsafe and unseen in your depth. To survive, you learned two key moves: first, to spiral into intense emotional overwhelm; second, to mask it behind a composed, rational exterior.
✨ The good news? These patterns are adaptations, not fixed traits. You can learn to soothe your nervous system, reconnect with your emotional truth, and cultivate secure, authentic relationships.
