Discover Your Protective Imprint
A nervous-system–based quiz to help you understand how you do connection — and why the same relationship patterns keep showing up.
If you’ve ever thought:
Why do I always end up in the same dynamics?
Why do I over-give… or pull away… or carry everything myself?
Why do I understand my patterns intellectually, but still repeat them?
This isn’t another attachment-style quiz.
This is about your nervous system.
What Makes This Different
Most relationship quizzes ask you to think your way to insight.
This one starts with your body.
Instead of labeling you with a personality type, this quiz helps you identify your Protective Imprint — the nervous-system strategy you learned to stay safe, connected, or regulated in relationships.
These patterns form early.
They’re automatic.
And they’re incredibly smart.
They’re also the root of what many people later recognize as codependent dynamics — whether that looks like over-giving, emotional withdrawal, hyper-attunement, or extreme self-reliance.
This quiz doesn’t diagnose you.
It helps you recognize yourself.
What You’ll Learn
In about 12 gentle, experience-based questions, you’ll discover:
How your nervous system responds when connection feels uncertain
Where you tend to hold stress in your body
Your default relational reflex under pressure
The protective logic behind your pattern (this part matters)
Why this strategy made sense — and what it may be quietly costing you now
You’ll receive your result immediately, plus the option to download a personalized nervous-system toolkit with practical regulation tools if you’d like to go deeper.
No shame.
No pathologizing.
No “fix yourself” energy.
Just clarity.
Who This Is For
This is for you if:
You’re emotionally aware but still feel stuck in familiar relationship loops
You’ve done therapy or self-work and want a deeper nervous-system lens
You care deeply about your relationships — maybe at your own expense
You’re tired of being told to “just set boundaries”
You want insight that feels grounded, not clinical or spiritualized
You don’t need to be in a relationship.
You don’t need to know attachment theory.
You just need curiosity.
A Quick Heads-Up
Some people find this surprisingly emotional — not because it’s intense, but because it names things they’ve felt for a long time.
Go slowly.
There’s no right way to answer.
Your first instinct is usually the most honest one.
