⭐💔 One of the biggest reasons people carry anxiety into their relationship is fear of abandonment. ⭐💔

General Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

⭐💔 Another sign is that you become attached to someone quickly, yet you can walk away from the relationship just as quickly. You do this because the worry you feel about them leaving you makes you believe that leaving first is the best option. In a sense, you’re protecting yourself from getting hurt by leaving them and acting like you never really cared about them. 💔⭐

It’s important to note that when you follow this direction, you’re going to feel sad or depressed for a period of time, especially if you were falling in love or already in love with the person. However, your fear of abandonment is so strong that it outweighs any other feeling, which means your fear stays in control.

⭐💔 Another sign is that you choose partners that you’re not compatible with or who you know can’t be your partner at that time. 💔⭐

⭐💔 Without realizing it, you purposely pick people that you know won’t make good partners so you don’t have to worry about becoming too close to them. You know that the relationship won’t last long or become serious and this makes you feel better. 💔⭐

Regret is the final form of emotional baggage. You constantly have “what if” thoughts and you start to look at how you could have changed certain situations. For example, you regret ruining a previous relationship by cheating on your partner so you stay in your current unhealthy relationship because you don’t want to make the same mistake of leaving. Regret can make you stop living your life in the present and even keep you from making decisions for your future.

🌺 ☀️ Today, psychologists confirm that attachment theory is a type of generational trauma. This means that problems with attachment tend to follow families from generation to generation until one person tries to stop the cycle, similar to stopping the cycle of abuse. For example, if your mother felt neglected by her mother as a child, you're more likely to feel neglected by your mother because she'll follow a similar trend. This trend can continue until someone changes its direction and finds a way to end the neglect and the attachment style that follows. ☀️ 🌺

Great if you have never had therapy for anxiety, or if you are considering therapy again after a long hiatus.

I couldn't read the book because of the typos. It also seems to use APA reference formatting, which to me made the book feel too academic.
