Attachment styles Attachment styles describe how people emotionally connect with others, especially in close relationships. These patterns form early in life and influence how individuals respond to love, support, and conflict throughout adulthood. Secure Attachment People with a secure attachment style tend to: • Trust easily • Handle conflict in healthy ways • Maintain emotional balance • Feel comfortable with intimacy and independence • Offer and seek support when needed This style is linked to stable and fulfilling relationships.
Anxious Attachment Those with an anxious style often: • Crave constant closeness • Worry about being abandoned • Seek frequent reassurance • React strongly to emotional triggers • Struggle with self-worth in relationships This pattern can lead to clingy or overly sensitive behavior. Avoidant Attachment Avoidant individuals may: • Prioritize independence • Avoid deep emotional connections • Feel uncomfortable with closeness • Struggle to express emotions • Pull away when relationships get intense They often appear distant or emotionally unavailable.
Fearful-Avoidant (Disorganized) Attachment This style combines traits of both anxious and avoidant types: • Desire closeness but fear intimacy • Send mixed signals in relationships • Feel emotionally overwhelmed • Often distrust others and themselves It’s common in those with a history of trauma or inconsistent caregiving.
