figuring out your attachment style

knowing your attachment styles, even if you only have certain characteristics, makes your relationships much more workable. it's important to be responsible for the wounds and behaviours that we bring to our relationships, romantic and platonic.

anxious/ambivalent attachment:

these behaviors are more likely to occur when the anxious individual is feeling distressed. these coping strategies can be overwhelming for their partners. the anxious individual may be viewed as clingy.

avoidant/dismissive attachment:

these beliefs and behaviors can make it difficult for avoidant individuals to form intimate relationships

fearful-avoidant attachment:

fearful individuals experience both anxiety and avoidance. they want to be in close relationships, but they lack confidence and security in themselves, their partner, and their relationships

secure attachment attachment:

secure individuals are confident in their ability to meet the needs of others and have healthy, reasonable expectations that their own needs will be met.

follow for more attachment theory and stay safe out there <3
