@duchessaysalot: Duchess demands regulation. 👑 So what does regulation actually have to do with attachment? 🧠🐾 Quite a lot. Schore & Schore describe modern attachment theory as increasingly centered around affect regulation and interactive regulation. Early in development, we don't regulate emotional states entirely by ourselves. Regulation happens within relationships. Another person notices our state, responds to us, and helps us move through it. Over time, those repeated experiences contribute to our growing capacity for self-regulation. In other words: we learn to regulate ourselves partly through experiences of being regulated with others. And that doesn't mean healthy attachment requires constant interaction. Connection and autonomy can coexist. Duchess obviously didn't read the article. But waking up, seeking connection, receiving approximately 4 seconds of validation, and then deciding she's had enough of me feels adorably on point. 😻 #school #footballtiktok #pumpkinseason #catsoftiktok #cattok
