Always Afraid They’ll Leave? Understanding Attachment Anxiety in CPTSD
If you are navigating Complex PTSD, relationships can feel exhausting, scary, or impossibly hard. Attachment anxiety and fear of abandonment can overwhelm even the most self-aware humans — even therapists — and leave you wondering if love will ever feel safe.
In this episode, I explain why CPTSD creates such intense panic in love and what you can actually do to shift the cycle. You will learn the critical difference between circumstantial power (living on external validation) and personal power (the internal security you have been craving).
I will share openly from my own journey and guide you toward reconnecting with the joy, ease, and freedom your trauma has hidden from you.
In this episode you’ll learn:
✦ How attachment anxiety shows up in relationships and therapy (and why it is not your fault)
✦ The difference between external validation and internal stability
✦ Techniques for self-reparenting during emotional triggers
✦ How to begin creating healthier relationship dynamics today
Less drama. More genuine security. Finally.
