THE CHALLENGE
Attachment disorders can cause chaos for young adults.
As young adults grow, they develop their own attachment style, mostly based on the attachment behaviors they learned as a child. The attachment style developed can have a huge impact on how young adults form relationships as adults. Attachment disorders are conditions that cause people to have a hard time connecting and forming meaningful relationships with others.
Attachment disorders are typically diagnosed in children ages nine months to five years and show through behaviors such as crying, searching and holding on to their parent to prevent separation. Attachment theory was developed while studying why babies become so upset when they are separated from a parent. The theory involves the way people form intimate and emotional bonds with others.
Attachment styles developed in early childhood affect overall happiness as an adult. A young adult who did not have their needs met as a child may have an insecure attachment style and find it hard to form intimate bonds with others as an adult. They may also have a hard time trusting people that are close to them.
Various insecure attachment styles in adults result in:
- An increased need to feel wanted
- A hard time depending on people close to them
- Jealousy
- Perfectionism
- Intense anger
- Frequent reassurance needed to know they are cared about
- Preference to isolate
- Over-inflated view of self
- Worry that getting close to others will make them less independent
- Fear they are not good enough for their desired relationships
- “Revolving door” of romantic relationships
- Conflicting feelings about relationships
- Desire to have romantic relationships but fear hurt and abandonment.
Ultimately, young adults who are unable to connect with others and form meaningful relationships can result in depression, anxiety, addiction and/or an eating disorder.
THE SOLUTION
Navigating attachment disorders: there is hope
Young adults are not able to change the attachment behaviors developed as a child, but are able to work toward secure attachments. Young adults should work to learn more about why they feel and think the way that they do. This work is typically the most effective when done with a therapist.
Therapists help young adults unpack their childhood experiences, identify patterns that exist in current relationships, and develop new ways of connecting with others. It is important for young adults to be as open and honest as possible with their therapist. When a therapist is able to understand a young adult, they are able to plan the best course of treatment.
Since every situation is unique, our program at Skyterra helps young adults tackle attachment issues individually.
