Exercise for Anxious Preoccupied Attachment Style | MedCircle

[TheTekinha]

I do this stuff all the time but I'm still anxiously preoccupied lol

[elizabethray]

Most anxiously preoccupied people that I know of and myself are fine being alone and spending time alone in the short-term. It’s when it seems like the loneliness is closing in it gets overwhelming. Also I do not care a bit what a random person in public thinks about me being alone, but I’ll get extremely anxious if I think close friends are purposely not responding to me or are acting slightly different. Think something else needs to be done about that

I am supposedly an Anxious Preoccupied type but I love being on my own, in fact, I spend most of my time in solitude. There's a lot of aspects of the type that do fit but some things definitely don't. Like I recently ended a relationship with an avoidant type, just 4 days after she shut down to me emotionally for the fisrt time. There will be no coming back, I have zero tolerance for that kind of behaviour in a relationship and have the discipline to ensure I don't. I'm here to figure out how I attracted someone like that to me in the first place, in spite of an aboslutely beautiful 3 months together wher we never once even had a cross word.

What's a challenge is affording to go out for anything... most people broke ...

I quit enjoy my alone time. I can think clearly 😊

What about those in the “audience” that worry about this very thing? I know I notice those by themselves. Various thoughts (pity, jealous of confidence, curiosity)occur for me when I see them. I have eaten by myself and those few times I have felt stronger emotionally because I “did it” and it was ok. May have even enjoyed it. But the step to actually do it is excruciating.

I thrive alone and single. I've only been in 2 relationships. It's an absolute struggle and fear dating people that I barely ever get any closer than 1 date even if I liked them. Bith times I'm in a relationship I'm anxiously attached. How they are affects how I am. I thrive alone. I don't know how to just be secure attached.

Uhm I'm an anxious preoccupied and i love being and doing things alone, as a matter of fact of I'm more of an introvert and independent does that mean I'm more of a secure attachmemt style

[kimberlyjefferson]

There are people who are rude and barge in asking why you are sitting alone and stare in public....people do judge and it's okay to flip them off while you enjoy yourself. 😊

[lucyeaston]

I'm insecurity attached..I think..but I do loads by myself?

[mariagill]

Sad thing is that these people being alone feel they are lonely and see someone alone means they are lonely too.

[gunillalofgren]

I have only gone out by myself on coffe and Meal because I can not be with anyone

[woods]

The think is, i so used to have all of that by

[Incognito-gv]

This is great but how do single mums do this when they have NO time alone apart from the journey to work and back

[TheHIGHstreamSTRESS]

You missed the mark on this one, Lady. (No offense lol) I can't speak for others but if they're anything like me they don't give a HOOT what random people in public think. Im actually rather extroverted. I'd be just obsessing over how long ago my husband's last text was and why he hadn't responded yet 12 minutes later lol.

The assumption that people think negatively of you is wrong. Nobody cares.

[lauraholland]

Do they want us alone? We are social creatures. But the devil love this easier to control if you are by yourself.
