Impact of Unhealed Trauma Avoidant Attachment
Individuals with an avoidant attachment style often struggle with forming and maintaining close connections. If left unhealed, this attachment style can pose challenges when it comes to making future plans and can have a profound impact on the potential for a healthy relationship.
In this episode, we will explore why those with avoidant attachment may find it difficult to make plans for the future, how it can affect relationships, and offer potential solutions.
Avoidant attachment style is characterized by a fear of intimacy and a desire for independence. Individuals with this attachment style may have experienced emotional distance or neglect in their early relationships, leading them to develop self-reliance as a coping mechanism. As a result, they may struggle with the idea of making plans for the future that involve emotional investment and vulnerability.
