The extent of my attachment difficulties is such that 5 different types of Ts told me that my needs weren't met as an infant. I have fought that reasoning because I had parents who loved me and didn't neglect me. I was a preemie and was in an incubator for around 2 weeks. T thinks that's it, along with my Mom's anxiety. I think genetics too. My main issue now is the attachment problem. I never understood why I became "addicted" to each one of my Ts. Now I know it's due to early attachment difficulties. It's very difficult to overcome. I suggest asking a prospective T how they deal with attachment issues. My current T is the only one whom I feel is going to help, by changing my neural pathways to feel the safety and security I apparently never had.
