night before last, on the first day of the new year, i began reading about attachment theory. i'd heard a lot about it from friends but didn't know and still do not know much about it. i know i have historically had an insecure attachment style, but is it anxious? avoidant? i hadn't read enough to know more than the surface level. but it comes to mind now because of what i've experienced for much of my life and what has recently intensified: a strong detachment from the desire to exist in this world, in this moment, in many moments, for stretches of time, as me.
Thanks for sharing. I needed to hear this. I detach currently to protect myself from being hurt. But it can only take me so far. Thanks for sharing your journey
Thank you for sharing. <3 I've also been thinking a lot about attachment lately, and I'm finding that I have a lot of the same feelings. So it was great to see this pop up in my inbox.
I finally got around to reading this after leaving it unread in my inbox, and it couldn’t have come at a better time. This weekend I had some of the worst of these exact feelings than I’d had in quite some time, and it really made me reckon with my biggest aim for this year which is to just sit with myself and my traumas without judgement or censorship. I hope you find some more peace soon, but I appreciated you sharing and making me feel less alone.
