Recap by Tammy AI
Im a secure attachment style. My mom said as long as i was "singing" she knew i was happy on my lil world. What i craved was a healthy environment. Im empathic so i soak EVERYTHING in. I wasnt craving physical touch or coddling. I just want someone "around".
Wow geez.... thanks for the leaving a kid at school reference. I noticed what my mom did was to literally throw me into kindergarten and into the arms of the teachers even as i cried and bawled my eyes out because i was scared, she ignored me because she had to rush to work (i was a kid, i didnt understand why she couldn't stay for awhile). I remember looking out the windows of the kindergarten classroom for many hours for my mom but she would never appear. A poignant memory was that a teacher recognise that i was very upset and crying for my mother for much of the day, she took me on a walk by holding my hand and showed me the other side of the windows within the corridor and soothed me and let me know that my mom will be back soon, after class and taught me to watch the clock on the wall and could look forward to seeing my mom again when the hands pointed to a certain time, that comforted me and i calmed down. She became my secure attachment figure on that day. Those memories still stay with me till today and thus made me an anxious preoccupied.
Actually, your attachment style was developed previous to the 1st day of Kindergarten. An attachment style isn't like a bolt of lightening. I am confident your anxiety was experienced in many other ways prior to your introduction to school. Give it some thought
@@azskinsfanhttr3494 This is broadly true but there is also evidence to suggest that about 30% of people's attachment styles change over life, so there are other factors involved outside of infancy.
@jaredt8526 30% and it takes work to change those attachment style. Cognitively recognized . Most people don't understand this. Attachment Styles are ingrained
Yes, very few people have that style. Also, most people have what is called a 'mixed bag'. The human psyche isn't easily placed into neat little boxes. You'll notice she didn't speak in 'absolutes' in the video.
Is a harness and lead suffice because the cable ties keep pulling tight in their sleep, even the years I reduced the length of their sleep to a total 4hrs a night. Look, I know it doesn’t seem like much but I only have 3 kids, with 4hrs total they were getting a solid 80 minutes each.
I came to see the video and I am just realizing how far I came from fearful avoidant to develop secure attachment style into relationships...I still struggle sometimes but thankfully I am on a position where I am aware of my flaws and working on them
We have a grandson who has adjustment disorder with anxiety. He has been sick his whole life and had a bilateral lung transplant when he was 10 and now is almost 17. He has to know where I am at all the time. His parents are divorced and his mother is bipolar and his sisters also live with us now and we are trying to help them deal with what life has dealt them. It is complicated to say the least.
Oh Good Lord! I wish I could do something to lessen the suffering..but the resilience that these people must have built over the years is am sure unmatchable. Sending lots of love and blessings. ❤ God Bless! I pray that better days are on the way!
I wish you all healing love and light including your daughter who suffers through her you had your grandchildren gratitude brings joy and staying in your now presence brings peace ☮️
When a person can’t get enough oxygen, that’s extremely anxiety producing. He probably felt that way many times when he was young. And anticipated feeling like that again. So it’s certainly understandable that he has anxiety disorder. I wish all of you the best. And good health for everyone.
My mom told me I would be sad when she left but was able to be soothed. My caregivers were consistent in how they showed up for me, and did allow me to do tasks on my own too. I think being an only child, allowed me the opportunity to not mind being alone. Now, I do think if someone isn't securely attached it can trigger different emotions that is from your baseline so you really need to be attuned to that. A anxiously attached person will slowly show controlling behavior and be very sensitive while a dismissive will make you think wanting basic connection is "just too much". Luckily securely attached people are flexible to an extent and if in love can really help others re-wire their expectations.
So I think I was more of a fearful type but I developed to more of a secure. Sometimes I have come backs but I try to calm myself and I’m still developing. So now what I remind me more of is the secure!
I scored high on secure attachment, which comes as a surprise to me since I was severely abused by both parents. I always had a joyful and loving demeanor as a child and with counseling, I believe is what has helped me
My parents (stepdad) waited all day when I broke my arm at a wedding. It happened in the early part of the day but I was asked to sit down and wait and watch till the evening. I was around 7-9 years old As a parent I was mindful of my reaction when my daughter would fall or hurt herself. I tried to be calm and watch her react before I did.
Oh gosh, the broken arm example. My sister broke her arm when she was around 8. She was with friends and had broken into a house that was being built and injured herself while jumping from a high shelf. She came home in tears. My mother spanked her and refused to take her pain seriously claiming that she was being dramatic. When my sister was still in pain hours later, my mother examined her arm and could feel the broken bone. She immediately took her to the ER. All the while, no one knew where I was… a 6 year old lol. No one could find me. Pretty decent snapshot of our childhood 🙃
Thx very much for this and all the content! It is so important to understand the range of typical so we can gat a better idea of possible barriers or problems.!
I recently heard of one therapist saying that as adults different partners can trigger different attachment styles. It's an interesting view as a lot of people are afraid that they didn't develop secure attachment growing up so it's going to be like that in all of their romantic relationships whereas perhaps with certain partners they can actually have secure attachment. Obviously it's good to work with a therapist first but nonetheless we shouldn't worry SO much about our attachment style. I think that what helps is a compatible partner. At the end of the day, we can do so much inner work, therapy, reading etc etc BUT I actually believe that healing truly completes in a relationship.
This makes so much sense Chris! I have been on both side of this coin and am currently in one with an individual without a secure attachment which affects me severely
My therapist thinks I'm bipolar 2. I've told them I only have issues with my partner. I never explode with annoying people at work, but people at work also don't criticize me and treat me the way my partner does. Doing couples therapy trying to work it out
I believe it was John Bolby that verified that healing occurs when in relationship with someone else. Could be a therapist, friend etc. Books and videos can only take you so far.
Great videos, thanks. Allow me to add my opinion on how you responded to your nephew falling and hitting his chin. I kinda feel like your response taught him how to completely ignore his pain, stuff it and move on. Your dismissive style in action 👌😁 Maybe it's better to acknowledge that he might be hurting, address his pain calmly and encourage him to play again if it's not a big deal... what do you think? P.S. I have a fearful avoidant attachment, so no judgment whatsoever 😂
Oh so maybe the multiple times when I was a small child and I was forgotten at the store and left for an hour until my mother remembered that I was there might cause me to be a bit traumatized?
What happens to a secure person if you end up dating for 5 yrs a person that is a very detouched avoidant. Can it change you, because Ive never been the same since they left because they didnt even break-up with me, it was so wired.
I have a close friend who was more insecure about herself than the thought a woman of her age should be. She started therapy and is now non functional. Mental healthcare is making healthy people sick and not doing much for sick people.
kinda disingenuous to say the mother mirrors the child - more like the other way around. The mother comes first, being anxious and then the child mirrors THAT.
My mom told me I would be sad when she left but was able to be soothed. My caregivers were consistent in how they showed up.

I’m so much more securely attached than I was when I left home and started to heal. Thank you for this

omg im very anxious and protective. I am learning SOO much out of this. I need to adjust my parenting style.

I like how you show compassion but omg, why people don't use punctuation? Its so hard to read when there's no period before next sentence begins. Sigh
@@Nina-gl7lo I know. People don’t use punctuation anymore. It bothers me too, but when are you gonna do?

Wat if idc if my parents are gone?

So what happens when one parent is like this but the other parent is crap and yell, or disappears for a long time.
Damn, Dr. Ho is so freakin' fine.
Am I this or am I fearful?
that's a questions only a fearful would have lol

The ads on their videos are very annoying and boring.
She talks too fast!
