Anxious attachment is a series of behaviours imprinted from one's childhood.
In psychology it helps those who have experienced childhood neglect, abandonment or abuse to understand why they struggle to have and maintain healthy relationships as adults.
It is a relatively new term... But so is the recognition of the long term effects of parental neglect....
If you are someone who has had these experiences you often end up with no sense of self or awareness of how to be in a healthy connection...
It can be a very empowering label for some as it helps to make sense of these experiences and the imprinting from them and then as a result can help to provide a framework for healing.
