How can I heal my attachment issues and stop this painful anxiety?

[liliaanabluee]

So I’ve had attachment issues since I was little, and I recently started to like someone and when I think about them my heart hurts when I’m sad or happy. I think it’s a part of my attachment issues and I hate it so much. I even worry sometimes. There’s other things but I want to end my attachment issues but I don’t know how. Please help.

I've only been able to feel attachment with one girl.

My aim on GAG is to help you untangle messy feelings and turn them into something healthy and beautiful, not painful and chaotic. 💕

That heart-hurting feeling is pure attachment anxiety mixed with a little falling-in-love rush. It’s intense, but you’re not broken. Start by noticing your triggers, practicing self-soothing (deep breaths, journaling, grounding), and giving your happiness other sources than this person. Therapy, especially CBT or attachment-focused, works wonders.

You deserve calm love, not panic love.
