I’m not overly needy and take my time for hobbies activities and my kids. Both divorced with kids and only really see each other every other weekend. I’m AP and she is FA. Can we work thru this?

It's really awesome to see a DA who is taking their own initiative to work on these things. So often, DAs do not seen or want to face that there is any problem that they need to participate in working on--or at least that is the way it often appears to other people. So it usually appears that DAs won't do any work on themselves unless a partner has made that a "boundary" required to continue the relationship. And even then it seems like many DAs are more likely to let it end than truly engage. So, the prospect of a DA in your life growing and changing out of their own desire can seem like pretty bleak hope. Thank you for showing it can and does happen!

@14:38 If someone told me they only wanted to see me once a week...that sounds absolutely horrid, especially so if other people don't get that same restriction. Other people get to see you more but not me...why? How I could NOT see that as a negative reflection on me? Even acknowledging that I fit into the Anxious Attachment camp, I can't fathom how someone could expect any sort of love to grow from that. If we do the math, that means that I only get to see you 52 times a year....WHAT? (104 if twice a week). And that's not even assuming that it's the whole day. It could just be a lunch date here..a movie-watch there..a dinner date here...and so forth. How are you supposed to bond with someone, create a family with them, or establish anything that resembles a life TOGETHER like that? The more content I watch regarding these topics, the more signs I see within myself and can identify with. But at the same time, I also start to feel more hopeless because this "other" type of relationship that should be attained sounds absolutely miserable. Over the years I've spared no expense in cultivating myself and building myself, but yes, *of course* there has been a feeling of something missing. How could there not be. I can't have a wife and kids by myself, can I? Of course not. The very aspect of trying to maximize my individual happiness in hopes to not fall prey to my anxious attachment tendencies has proven emotionally exhausting in and of itself. And in the end, I feel compelled to cling to them when they do come around, because from my experience when people have the opportunity to leave, they do.

DA can make preoccupied anxious go mad just to get regular updates. Triggers major anxiety. Refusing to provide simple updates but expecting them from you. For what? I don't know and it is just not worth it to your nervous system. Why does preoccupied anxious have to be law abiding to protect DA feelings when it is not reciprocated? Just not worth the pain brought on from the bread crumbing. Why does DA expect so much while giving so little in return.

Lately I am listening a lot of videos with analysis of the term codependency. As a term it hit off in 80's to describe enabling behaviours of partners and members of families of addicts and alcoholics. Since then, it became a vague term that describes the situation where (usually) "needy" and upset woman is making a lot of fuss and noise about how her unmet needs to her (usually) dissmisive partner that avoids any talk that involves feelings, commitment or realablilty. First of all, humans have needs. We have needs that only others can fulfill. We developed families, societies- the whole civilisations because we work together and we "use" each other to create and prosper. That's why since the dawn of time we pair up. When we do not get our needs met, at first we are gently saying, then we are persistingly asking and then, when you still do not get your needs met, you scream and shout and kick. It same happens with emotional needs. I absolutely adore this channel, I am so greateful that I came to this place where I can learn so much about myself. I'm just asking, don't use the term codependent, because in psychology this term is still wobbly defined, without proper instrument to measure and it does inspire shame and guilt around behaviours that are here to enhance connection and protect the needs of the one whose needs go unmet for prolonged period of time. Plus, it became mysogonistic. Peace y'all!

You feeling annoyed shows that your being understanding has a cap. How can you be understanding if you're really just annoyed and want them to be quiet and content? Do you reflect on the countless times they have given you love without you having to put in work to ask? Think about parting ways. It's truly hurting the anxious person. This may not apply to you but in case it does.

Thais, I doubt you'll read this message or even respond but I'll ask anyway. I've been searching a lot of information on Attachment Theory and such and a lot of these books, videos and articles online always point to three different things: Stoic Philosophy, Mindfulness, and Self Compassion. When I read information on Stoicism and how psychology has used it, I get articles about CBT, DBT, REBT, Adlerian Psychology, and Logotherapy. Mindfulness I find stuff from Buddhism, Taoism, Meditation, and such. Then self compassion, I found that NVC (nonviolent Communication) focuses on being compassionate with yourself and with others, understanding their feelings and needs. So, my question to you is: What's the right approach to all of this? The whole thing is overwhelming, so much to learn yet so vague. Is there one source I can just simply focus on and get the best out of it?
@MellowBellow13 жыл бұрын
Attachment theory belongs with ALL these psychological orientations. Attachment theory works in parallel. Because once you know which attachment style you have, then you can identify the core wound and apply a therapeutic approach to solving it. With FA because it’s specifically a response to trauma, you need a trauma informed therapist who can practice a somatic style of therapy. ( body sensation therapy ? Because trauma is always stored in the body.

Then FFS...communicate!!! Provide a little more clarity on what "space" translates to. It usually means walking away. This anxious person has learned from an avoidant ex of five years to just walk the fuck away. If you can't communicate your needs or personal boundaries, then of course it will take the illusion that personal freedom and identity is infringed upon. I'm certainly cognizant of my attachment and have explored myself more...she on the other hand...I would wager isn't watching these videos or reading up on it. She just recreates her safe, familiar neglect and isolation with every withdrawal. I won't even discuss the passive aggressiveness or gaslighting I experienced last April...or my own triggered trauma...the man I found on my couch one Friday night.

Some avoidants are totally emotionally unavailable because they refuse to let go of a grudge from their past often with their parents and they just won't allow any relationship their in to be healthy at all but selfishly take what they want from others without ever considering the notion that some of us also have feelings. They think that if anyone trusts them enough to let them hurt them, it's their own fault and they will never accept responsibility for how they hurt everyone. So it seems to me.

I have just gone through a break up and in one way he was very supportive and understanding but the same issues kept reacuring and I found myself spinning out of control with anxiety and it just got to the point where nothing felt genuine anymore that evrything he did was just to try and appease me but it was not from the heart because we were so difrent in our needs. He tried very hard and the harder he tried the more anxious I became I felt it was all fake and I felt that he will get burned out from trying and I just became more and more increasingly out of control. I could not let go of the idea that if we were on the same page we should want the same things in the same way.

I deeply love his heart and soul but my anxiety in the relationship became unbearable to me and I was constantly in a negative space. I lost someone I deeply care for but there was no other way I just could not handle it I had no peace. I felt like I constantly tried to change him to meat my needs. It became incredibly exhausting. But I’m broken because I loved him more then anything.

every video is like 💡 going off really ❤️ the stuff..., but just now..., is it me or is she really mixing up the audience of the video and changes between talking to the partners of anxiously attached individuals and the anxiously attached individuals themselves? or am I being the D.A. here who needs to break down EVERYTHING and needs a clearer guide on what every "they" refers to when she talks. 😭

I like how humans jump to the "no one can meet your needs 100% of the time" anytime you have an unmet need. It feels annoying to hear the assumption that it HAS to be Purely 100% of the time. Can it be at least 10% ???? Ugh it just feels like a shut down of whatever you are needing by making your request sound extreme.

if they don't talk to you for 3 months, then that goes beyond taking space and becomes ghosting imo.

Bro you shouldn't have waited for 3 month Anyways Be a little more independent and find someone worthy of you And don't kill yourself with guilt and why did I waste my time with her or whatever such questions. It's all about how you change and evolve

This is great content but your sound recording is not great, making it hard to follow what you are saying. I'd love to share this with someone, but English is not their first language and I know they would struggle to understand. Otherwise great!

Speak slower, you don’t need to catch the next bus. Relax and breathe, so your audience actually can hear and digest the message you’re trying to send here.
