Why Do Some People Hate Sudden Changes?

Some people feel scared when things change suddenly. It's like being on a rollercoaster, you know it's fun, but your brain isn't ready for the surprise! When something happens fast, like moving to a new house or switching schools, your brain gets confused because it wasn’t prepared. This makes some people feel nervous, upset, or even angry. Over time, if change keeps coming suddenly, they might start to avoid it altogether.
