I read the article -- twice. I am definately insecurely attached. I find this really interesting because I did part of my thesis on attachment in infants but never clued in to how trauma might result in an attachment issue as an adult.
In therapy, I've identified that one of my major issues is trust. Not like, "I don't trust you because you might steal something...I'm actually quite the Pollyanna in this area. I think everyone will "do the right thing." But trusting someone with my feelings, or to be able to support me -- no way.
My Therapist says its very primal with me, I don't trust "trusting". Which makes all of this so incredibly hard.
How have you been able to overcome your "survivor alone" mind set?
