Yes, attachment disorders impact on the way you feel about and relate to others in your life. I have a fearful-avoidant style of attachment, which means I avoid getting close to others, yet desperately want to be close to others. I deeply long for close relationships, but my fear of rejection and abandonment prevent me from allowing others near. My childhood was full of chaos, CSA, DV and neglect, so I guess it's not too difficult to see how that type of attachment developed. I'm still learning, so interested to hear from others.
Thanks for this!
