Five kinds of moment that reliably set off fast reactions in most people.
Example
Mei snaps at her brother when she feels rushed in the morning. She is calm at the same brother in the afternoon. The fast reaction is not really about him. It is about the rush. Once she names that, mornings get easier.
How it fits in
Most fast reactions trace back to one of five trigger types: feeling rushed, judged, ignored, stuck, or derailed. The point is not to memorise all five but to find your most common one. Catching it earlier is what makes change possible. Once you name the trigger, the reaction stops feeling like part of your personality.
