How it works
Avoidance provides immediate relief and makes the next encounter harder, which is the trap. The ladder works because each rung is chosen to be uncomfortable rather than overwhelming, and because you stay long enough for the discomfort to come down on its own rather than leaving at the peak. Leaving at the peak is what reinforces the avoidance.
