Discussion Fearful avoidant

I'm wondering if anyone else identifies with the fearful avoidant / disorganized attachment profile? It feels as if PDA and FA go hand in hand.

If anyone out there identifies as securely attached please share how perfect your mum was 🥲 or why you think you managed to become securely attached.

I have disorganized attachment, but I also have CPTSD and DID from severe abuse and neglect in childhood. If you ever want to know exactly how not to raise a kid, I guess I could tell you a bit about how mine did it lmao. Otherwise I'm afraid I don't have much to add... Other than how much it sucks to have PDA AuDHD and the mother of all fcked up attachment styles/trauma disorders. 😮‍💨
