Eye-opening indeed!

To be brutally honest, I thought anxious attachment was just something in one’s head. I am so glad I got hold of this book for it has transformed my thinking and helped me understand the phenomenon. Like the author, my siblings and I had a difficult childhood. I am now able to see how that reality manifested itself and I am now able to recognise the patterns.

The use of anecdotes is particularly useful in clarifying the concepts expounded. I appreciated most the contents of Chapter 5 which is titled “Healing from Within” and the story of Jake and Eleanor. Many people (like me) will have a mindset shift once they have read this book.

Perfect!

Over the years, I have been learning about attachment styles, curious about improving my relationships with others as well as myself. This book was very informative and contributed to my journey. The tips and advice to support the information were on point, making it a book that I would recommend, especially if you potentially fall under the category of anxious attachment (or, equally important, if you are partnered with one). Worth a listen!

A Journey to Healing and Self-Reliance

Through heartfelt conversations with a close friend, I’ve come to realize that I have anxious attachment tendencies—a discovery that has been deeply healing for me. Not all of us are fortunate enough to have relationships that help us uncover these truths, but this book serves as a valuable guide to recognizing the behaviors of anxious attachment. It's truly worth the journey of self-awareness. Understanding these patterns not only improves our relationships with others, but also teaches us the power of detachment, creating more peace, self-reliance, and self-nurturing in our lives.
