Yes! Obsessively researching avoidant attachment for months on end on social media, YouTube, podcasts, books. After a while it just keeps you stuck - and it doesn’t change the outcome of the relationship, because the other person still has to have the self awareness and the desire to change.

I don’t try to understand them. If they don’t want me they don’t. You can be the most beautiful shade of green and if their favourite colour is blue. They won’t choose u. Doesn’t matter.

I think I try to understand them to see if I can figure out how to beat the system… if I understand it, I can “navigate it”… but the truth is that it’s exhausting for me and counterproductive

Non-dominant handwriting is an excellent tool to access your inner child. Ask them how they're feeling, and with your non-dominant hand, let them answer. Ask them what they need, then do your best to meet it. An emotional comfort doll is highly therapeutic, too. Hold the ECD as if you’re holding your inner child; comfort them until they feel safe.

TikTok videos, tarot readers, nightmares, therapist sessions and ChatGpt all day. This is the first content that was actually helpful for all of this pain.

Wow Jen beautifully put. I've experienced all stages in a space of 2 Months😭 Im now at the point of coming home to me, I have chosen self love, self introspection despite external actions that triggered that feeling. For the first time today I was calm I took a moment to breath instead of react or overreact, come to find that me releasing control was the key. It starts with me, within understanding the feelings that come with it. Choosing not to avoid but face it , its hard but work worth doing over and over again🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 Learning that our relationships whether romantic, friendship or family reflect our internal state🤍🌸

I feel like the adult self in me is not that developed or safe for my inner child/ teenager to trust so i assign it an imaginary “savior” character that talks to them. Wonder if it works
