The Best Kept Secret in Psychology + Anger--Lesson 22

Emotional regression is one of the best kept secrets in modern psychology. There is virtually nothing that is written on the subject or certainly very little that explains it and relates it to everyday life, especially as it impacts anger and rage. There are many ways to define emotional regression and we are very familiar with the following ones because either you’ve employed them recently or someone has said them to you:

“I wish you’d grow up.”
“You’re acting like a big baby."

Perhaps less common—but still a good way to define regression—is an unconscious return to our past history. When we regress we are hurled into our past faster than lightening.

Question: Have you ever found yourself feeling "little" or "small" when your boss calls you into his/her office or when you go home for the holidays?

In Lesson 23 you will discover more information about this well-guarded secret--Emotional Regression.
