5 things you do when you have an anxious attachment style

5 things you do when you have an anxious attachment style

1. You need constant reassurance that they still love you
2. A late reply feels like abandonment
3. You read into everything - tone, timing, word choice
4. You sacrifice your needs to avoid conflict
5. You mistake intensity for intimacy

Anxious attachment is not a personality. It is a response to inconsistent love in childhood. You can rewire it. But first you have to see it.

i literally thought i was just 'too sensitive' my whole life. number 3 hits different because i'll replay a text in my head for hours trying to figure out what they really meant. didn't realize until therapy last year that it was all connected to how my parents showed love inconsistently. rewiring is the hardest thing i've ever done but man it's worth it
