Hi again. Yes, I’m not sure I understand why you received aggression but I imagine it must have been because they were angry that you were not giving authority to the established authority and trying to assert your own for yourself ? If it helps, biologically the brain does actually perceive it as a threat to its life. Scientists have done research here - https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2016/12/28/14088992/brain-study-change-minds
The person has made their identity to follow that authority and belief system so to threaten that is to unconsciously threaten their identity. The brain has somehow wrapped its identity to equal a threat to the body, because the amygdala can’t tell the difference between the physical threat to self and the extended self created by thought. The amygdala does not make analysis as the cortex does, it just receives input and reacts. Only way to overcome is to make that conscious.
I don’t identify as sister, I identify as an alien fairy so you need to refer to me like that. (Joke :) )
