[QUOTE=moonlitsky;4285343] It has been proven that complex PTSD is an attachment disorder: neuroscientists have found that only those with insecure early attachments will develop full blown PTSD.
Could you share any research or articles on this proven fact? I would love to read them.

Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
