“Finding your voice after years of silence is probably one of the most difficult things to do. But it can also be one of the most liberating things to do!”
― Healing Your Attachment Wounds: A Guide to Healing What's Hidden in Your Attachment Style and Relationships
― Healing Your Attachment Wounds: A Guide to Healing What's Hidden in Your Attachment Style and Relationships
“Sometimes, however, unmet attachment needs have a positive impact on future relationships, if those later friendships are experienced as second chances. Eager to love and be loved, eager to meet those basic needs for caring and affiliation, children can make up for those unmet needs by being outgoing, having strong leadership qualities, and becoming devoted friends. So insecurely attached children are not doomed to a life of desperation, withdrawal, clinging, aggression, or insecurity, but they may need some additional help negotiating the complex terrain of the social world. The deeper a child’s unmet need, the harder it may be to ever have it filled later on. Expecting rejection, neglect, or smothering, the child may respond to peers with passivity, withdrawal, or aggression. Children who are afraid to assert their own needs may follow along with whatever the friend or the group says.”
