When an over-adapted type comes into contact with a person of either high or low intelligence, that person will have a fit of jealousy. At that time, there is no movement in the stress hormones of the over-adapted type because of the learned helplessness that was created by the electric shocks from their parents in infancy. If it were learned helplessness, you would have no feelings about the other person’s unpleasant reaction, but because of learned helplessness, you irresistibly imitate their condition, and you take the feelings they would be feeling as your own.
The person who is having a jealousy attack against the over-adapted type is becoming the regression type. If the latent inflammation of the other person who is in the regression type is a “lowly child,” the person will unknowingly harbor feelings of “I am so miserable and yet I am so unfair” toward the over-adapted type who has superior intelligence than he/she does.
The point here is that when a person is having an attack of jealousy, their stress hormones drop and they are regressing. The person who is regressing perceives himself as weak and the other person as strong. Then there is a value tipping that the weaker self is “good” and the stronger is “wrong”. (This is “ressentiment” in French. The “value tipping” is the creation of a standard of “good or wrong” in place of the standard of “superior or inferior.)
When you are the over-adapted type and your stress hormones drop, the other person regresses and makes you the bad guy, saying “you are wrong” because they are having fits of jealousy and a value tipping over. And if the over-adapted type irresistibly imitates the feelings of the other person who is having jealousy fits as they are, they become in a state of “I am weak and the strong, evil person is trying to hurt me”. If the over-adapted type imitates the destructive personality of the other person, that person, who is self-perceived as weak due to the difference in intelligence, will feel more and more that the over-adapted type is “strong and evil,” and will have further fits of jealousy and become destructive, which may be repeated, amplifying the jealousy of that person.
The over-adapted type has been aware since childhood that “I am weak” due to learned helplessness, and then has a strong sense of “I am weak” because they imitate the other person who is having fits of jealousy against them.
The problem is that when the over-adapted type imitates the destructive personality who is having fits of jealousy, the damage done to the other person is not the same if there is an intellectual high/low difference. The other person who is having a jealousy attack is in the mental state of a child and thinks he is complaining, “It’s not fair!” but when the over-adapted type imitates it with impunity, it becomes “murderous” intense emotions because of the difference in intelligence (all of this is written in the narrative).
When the over-adapted type imitates the regression type, it feels like a child being angry at an adult, but from the regression type’s point of view, it is an adult being furious at a child, which causes more fits of jealousy and regression. The over-adapted type imitates this further, so that in the mind of the over-adapted type, there is a sense of violent escalation of anger. If the over-adapted type unknowingly imitates the regression type and shows his/her displeasure to that person, it will be perceived as a killing intent to the person because of the intellectual difference. The relationship with the other person in the over-adapted type is chaotic because they imitate the other person irresistibly.
When the caregiver has a fit of jealousy and a expressionless cold look on his face and is angry at the child, he assumes that the child is bad, and he feels that he, the weak and good person, is the one who will correct that wrongdoing. That caregiver will not react that way when other children do the same thing, but will have a brilliant “good or bad” reaction to the over-adapted type who is intellectually different from him. And if the over-adapted type irresistibly imitates the fits of jealousy, then it escalates and becomes abusive.
If a child of the same age has a fit of jealousy toward an over-adapted type, and the over-adapted type imitates it unprovoked, it becomes bullying. This is how it becomes power harassment, moral harassment, sexual harassment, etc. (all written in narrative).
When the mind of an over-adapted type of person is buzzing, try to think of it as “my autoimmunity is out of control,” and your stress hormones will naturally respond. When you think “my autoimmunity is out of control” in various situations, gradually your stress hormones will react normally and you will stop imitating people who cause jealousy attacks, and you will be able to avoid those people.
When you avoid people who cause jealousy attacks, the inflammation in your brain subsides, your cognitive function returns to normal, and before you know it, the feeling of being “weak” is gone from your mind (all written in narrative).
