ok so real talk, this book is about avoidant attachment. basically if you're the type who ghosts people when things get real, or you get suffocated the moment someone wants to be close to you, this is your book. honestly? the first few chapters made me uncomfortable. like really uncomfortable. because author was describing exactly how i act in relationships, saying i need space when what i really mean is "don't see the real me." what actually works here is the author makes you trace back where this stuff comes from. the worksheets were annoying at first (i almost skipped them lol) but they actually made me notice patterns i never saw before. some chapters repeat the same point three different ways, which felt unnecessary. this book only works if you actually do the stuff, not just read it. if you're looking for something to make you feel better without changing anything, this isn't it.
