Thank you so much for helping to humanize rather than demonize the fearful avoidant. It has been difficult for me to completely relate to the extreme descriptions of fearful avoidant, because I have also developed a lot of secure attachment tools to cope with my chaotic inner world and upbringing even in my youth. So those extreme descriptions have actually confused me. It is like I could say that deep down I completely identify with the inner feelings of the fearful avoidant, however, I developed and experimented with a lot if logical arguments and self soothing tools to help me cope and actually be the pillar of stability for most people around me. It did not eliminate that inner feeling though. It is like I built a pretty decent house on top of a shitty foundation, and that it all stood pretty stable until a few earthquakes hit. Then I was left pretty disoriented and my fearful avoidance that lie at the base came into full bloom/was reinforced. But I am also grateful that the earthquakes exposed that shitty foundation so that I could rebuild it again. I would so like to see more videos on the topic of well-adapted fearful avoidants like myself. And I feel you do a very good job of addressing this need. Thank you.

Well, if, when and how to tell a new/old partner about your paradoxical mind would be nice (mentioned this on a different video of yours). But also I am interested in anything related to how it is to have such a confusing and stressful attachment pattern that you have to invest a lot of time & energy figuring out and applying different coping and healing strategies. There has been a lot of trial and error for me. I mean, when I look back at my life I realize how much time and energy I have spent just self regulating that I could have spent on other things! Even now, when I have learned to detect and deal with emotions before they turn into anxiety, I still have to deal with the thought-emotions of fear popping up every now and then (particularly when I am tired, when I am in vulnerable positions with family or loved ones). I don’t know if that makes any sense. But what I am talking about could be analogous to how an alcoholic experiences the path towards sobriety. Likewise the need to talk about and identify high-functioning fearful-avoidance is akin to the importance of identifying high-functioning alcoholic; they can go untreated if the only descriptions out there are of the extreme versions. I thank you for your contribution to that. Another comment I read here was someone who described having these thoughts deep in the closet of there mind. I think many of us are aware of the irrationality of the thoughts that pop up in our heads and carry a LOT of shame even when we manage to keep them locked up inside (which doesn’t work in the long run). Anyway, I feel I could talk about this for ages. It is fascinating. Thank you for sharing and being so vulnerable with us.

I really relate to this. I thought I was managing my cptsd well and progressing, until a wonderful place I was volunteering at shut down and my beloved cat died suddenly. I was plunged into a terrible dark depression which I'm still trying to come out of. I realised that my cat and my volunteer job helped me so much that I wasn't feeling those bad feelings on a daily basis. Now I'm exposed to them and it can be so distressing. I like the idea of rebuilding again on a stronger foundation.

I just want to say I have so much respect for your ability to try and navigate such turbulent waters. It speaks to such a depth and inherent loving character in yourself and Im so glad attachment theory is becoming more understood because people deserve to be understood by themselves without shame, share their emotional experiences or lack there of- even the feelings they cant understand or feel are shameful - with someone who understands. The inherent problem in our world regarding FAs is they operate from childhood wounds in an im not ok, youre not ok world view. Many, especially those with high intelligence can "logic" their way into recovery, and that is an amazing and no small feat. Its herculean and most people either have never had to do it, or will never be able to do it. So BE PROUD. You are INCREDIBLE. The problem comes though, when they enter dating with a secure person who wants a loving commitment. Because suddenly their internal body from a nervous system level, is still in that im not ok youre not ok world view. So while they cognitively understand and recognise the chaos of whats happening, and do NOT want to be hurting anybody, after all they put in so much effort to navigate through trauma, on their own sometimes too, to do this very thing - be there for others and try to be there for themselves - it can elicit HUGE feelings of shame: im not worthy, im bad, i hurt others, somethings wrong with me. And sometimes some behaviour can be hurtful, especially if the FA doesnt know what the heck is going on and ironically, the more honest they are about their experience, the more they act from a place of integrity, the more our secure world response is going to misunderstand from a place of ignorance, labelling them as bad etc. And this can lead to huge shame and guilt for the FA who was actually just being genuine the whole way through. And this REINFORCES the im not okay, youre not okay world view. Because they dont understand themselves, and theres no trust that someone else could understand. Thats why I think this can all start to change if FAs understand themselves from a cognitive and nervous system level, and then use their "logic" to understand its safe to share that with somebody who will understand and who will love them anyway. I think focusing on a nervous system level and seeing it like this is hugely helpful because thats literally what it is. And once you know that, you can come from a place of curiosity, intention and grace because there truly is no need for shame.

This really helped me understand EFT and how to get better. I walked myself through all the situations with my partner that scare me and instead of repressing it and trying to push away that fear, I took it along with me while tapping. I cried and I was able to release to feelings and I do feel lighter now. Thank so much Timmer

@ivan Well I haven’t healed yet but I’ve maintained open communication with my partner about my healing journey and I’ve definitely gotten better. I’m way more affectionate now than I ever thought I could be, me and my partner have been together for a year now thanks to this. As in how long it took for EFT to work? Well just the first time I did it I cried a lot and felt relief because I was releasing a lot of repressed emotions but it took me about 2 weeks of EFT and journaling to actually start being affectionate and initiating romantic things with my partner without feeling awkward and pushing them away again.

Never knew about attachment styles until today. I don’t seem to have a issue with intimacy but more fear of rejection and trust. The trust issue seems to appear if I feel I’m not a priority or I sense he’s lying. As soon as I open up and be vulnerable to show him I’m keen, they feel secure and comfortable so not as much effort is shown. At this stage my wall goes up again and I pull back. I’ve put it down to I’m too honest and although they say they love my honesty I’m not sure they can’t cope. Im very blunt and straight forward in what I want/expect and deserve. My relationships seem to have a 3 month life span 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’ll watch your other videos and hope they give me hope x

Thank you for your amazing advice, it really spoke to me, having the same condition, which ruined more than one relationship. Healing, improving, must take time I'm sure... I practice what you suggest, and it does work to make me feel a bit better when I do, but I do relapse often still. And it's hard. It's hard on my significant other for sure, it's hard on me as well. These cycles of distrust, arguments, then romance and bliss, then distrust, arguments. And the shame, guilt and pain feel for those relapses... are still so intense.

Yes, EFT works! I know this because I’m an accredited EFT practitioner. I highly recommend researching this wonderful modality to help break through limiting beliefs and release bothersome emotions. Once you reduce emotional intensity your feelings are no longer influencing your decisions. That’s when you are in a true position of choice. Clearing and processing emotional intensity also allows you to develop a more objective perspective of triggering events.

Thank you so much Paulinfor these wonderful videos. They are valuable, since I am dealing with a breakout from a few full avoidant who broke my heart and left me with so many questions, since our relationship was so wonderful and so loving. He said he couldn’t love himself and doesn’t respect himself, so I had a deep dive into trying to understand that since he said he loved me, but not himself. He’s dealing with major depression after seeing his father betray his mother and seeing his wife betray him multiple times. And he’s such a wonderful person dealing with so much hurt and depression and dealing that he’s not a good dad and his children are depressed

But it send me on this path of discovering everything about attahment styles, so i guess it served for something... I also went to psychoterapist last year and surprisingly enough she is an eft practicioner. I just never used this way, i am no commited to do at least one tapping per day, and i found out it works best if i do it in my native language. With your help i am finally discovering the true power of eft. Thank you for creating all this videos, very helpful! :)

This made me feel so seen, it was like you were pulling thoughts out of my brain. From the feeling weird about your boyfriend, to being scared that the year of healing and therapy would make you "realize" you wanted to leave him, it was like hitting the nail on the head for me. I'm so glad I found this video. I am currently doing EMDR therapy to heal some relational trauma I have, as well as trying to navigate my OCD, but I think I'm going to try to integrate EFT into my healing. How long would you say it takes to see results in breaking down your resistance and feeling more love?

I am a student of A Course In Miracles and I LOVE your process. I know it works because your process correlates with spiritual psychology. In the Course Jesus teaches responsibility for sight. He wants us to take responsibility for our perceptions. He says the ego (fear brain) is always looking to be mistreated in order that it may mistreat or "attack back." When you are visualizing being Loved, that is actually the acceptance of God's Love. God's Love shines through everyone and and everything, IF we are willing to "see" it. The resistance you spoke of, is the resistance the ego throws up in our mind in order to keep us from releasing IT. You are describing the alchemy of turning fear (unconscious fear of God's Love) to Love (accepting it!) !!! Bless you and thank you. I am going to go right now and do your process with as many Souls that cross my mind.

Because I do this in my friendships and all other relationships as well.I feel like I dont love people enough.I am a bad person.Everyone loves their parents friends partners so much.But I dont feel that intensity with anybody.I feel numb many many times.Before I could never even imagine my father getting hurt in the smallest way.I loved him so much.But now if I think I feel numb and uncaring to everyone around me.I feel scared and like a bad person.Is it because of fearful avoidant.

This is such a good question! Sometimes it's just your romantic relationship, sometimes it can be with all your relationships. What you describe is the shutdown, which can be the dismissive side of fearful avoidant attachment. You are protecting yourself by not allowing yourself to feel too much. It can lead to you feeling like a bad person, because you think: "shouldn't I love my family? My friends?". But shutting down your feelings can happen when you are afraid to lose someone, to be rejected. You are protecting yourself from the pain by not feeling too intensely. It's not you, it's a protective mechanism. There's nothing wrong with you :)

Thank you so much for making these videos. You’ve given me hope after many years of feeling broken and inadequate. 🧡 I do have a question about visualizing - am I supposed to be visualizing while tapping and not saying anything? As opposed to the whole ‘even though I… I fully love and accept myself’ or should the visualizing be simultaneous to talking about the specific pattern/fear I’m trying to release?

Ah in the program I will take you through those visualizations in detail! But for now: Try visualizing, letting the feelings come up, while you tap the points. That's it. You don't have to say anything! I hope that helps. And there will be an English program, you can sign up for the waitlist right here: lang-gelukkig.ck.page/061cf03b63

thanks a lot for sharing. It is so useful to finally have someone articulate the experience you have been going through for years. I've been going and changing therapists for years, but have never had someone narrow it down so clearly for me. However, I do have a question, as you mentioned most of the work you have done was eft. What about your partner? Did he also have an avoidant attachment style? Did he also try eft? I am now in a relationship where both of us seem to go through the same attachment style, which is new for both of us, almost like we are mirrors. How did your partner handle his own blockages? I hope you don't mind the question :) Warmly,
