Some people hate change because it feels like losing something they know. Imagine your favorite toy is replaced with a new one, you might feel sad and confused, even if the new toy is cool. When things change, our brain tries to keep everything familiar, so we get scared or upset.
Examples
- A child who loves playing with the same set of blocks every day might cry when they are given a new, different toy.
- An adult who has worked at the same company for twenty years feels anxious about being transferred to another department.
- A student who is used to doing all their homework in one evening gets stressed when asked to spread it out over several days.
