We tend to experience anxious attachment when we had inconsistent love as a child.
It is likely your relationship with your caregivers was unpredictable.
As an adult, you struggle with feeling secure in relationships and may find that you experience a ‘need’ to be wanted and intense emotions of anxiety and jealousy when you sense this is being taken away from you.
In a bid to keep people from leaving you, even the wrong ones, your internal blueprint is designed to put others first, to take on their feelings as your own, to prioritize what they want and need, to ‘fix’ them, to mother them, and to do what needs to be done in order to never be abandoned."
These feelings of abandonment and fear can be unpacked and processed in therapeutic sessions working towards more healthy relationships and stable self esteem
