5 Ways to Support Your Anxiously Attached Partner When your partner is anxiously attached, there are a few things you can do to support them. The first is being consistent. Anxiously attached people will appreciate consistency, especially fi they have grown up in an erratic environment. The second thing that is helpful is reassurance. Verbally letting them know how you feel about them and that you are committed, if you are committed to the relationship. Thirdly, take the time to express gratitude. Anxiously attached people might find it difficult to see their own beauty and worth. When you share gratitude, they often feel your love. Trying to be responsive. So replying to texts and calls as best you can. And lastly, staying close after conflict. Working out ways to stay connected during and after conflict is super helpful.

Seek validation from them, rather than giving it to ourselves. Give up interests or friendships to keep the other person happy. Criticise ourselves for feeling needy. Consistently focus on the other person’s needs above our own.

We Self-Abandon When We:

When you have the anxious attachment adaptation, part of you is seeking someone else to regulate you. Healing comes from learning to self-regulate more effectively AND engaging in co-regulation.
