Do You Have An Anxious Attachment Style?

Anxious attachment is rooted in distrust. Typically, someone with an anxious attachment style has an overwhelming fear of being abandoned. This style shows itself in the form of jealousy, mistrust, nervousness, and neediness. The following signs that you have an anxious attachment style are below.

You're constantly stressed

Every time your partners phone buzzes do you feel suspicious and tense? Wondering who is contacting them and fighting the urge to look?

You have a fear of abandonment

You are constantly thinking about if your partner is thinking of leaving you or why they might leave you.

You're in need of constant reassurance

There's a time and a place for loving reassurance, but if your need is constant, it may force your partner into an inauthentic corner to soothe your nerves.

You struggle to be alone

If being yourself or not having constant contact with your loved ones sends you spiraling, this is an unhealthy sign of anxious attachment.
