    Getting angry quickly in an anxiously attached person is a threat-detection habit their nervous system learned, not a character flaw.

    When you get angry fast, it usually is not because you are "too much." It is often because your nervous system learned to live on alert.

    Julie Menanno quoted

    Underneath the anger of anxious attachment is unresolved grief about not having been responded to.

    Underneath anger is sadness over all your cumulative experiences in life of not being responded to, past and present. The sadness around powerlessness. Unresolved grief.
