I tell folks to end their relationship if it’s clear they can’t work (or don’t want to work) through their issues. It’s not a bad thing if you need to end the relationship. I’ve seen a lot of misogyn…
In my opinion focusing on two goals at once before you have a lot of success is just your unbelief talking. You don't believe you'll heal your issues through manifestation (at least for a while) so yo…

Ahh words! Jokes aside:TY for the response! Personally I am saddened at the new rules as I feel phone addiction (and by extension pron accessibility) is a prevalent issue, and one worthy of r/Decidin…
I did not make these changes because of one member’s complains or disapproval. I made these changes over months of observation and after countless posts from members on the sub calling for mods to tak…
There are several subreddits for all of the aforementioned issues.
> This sub is for mundane issues such as "I want to stop being lazy" And yet the front page here is mostly about self-loathing, depression, and crippling anxiety.
When I entered this sub it was not like that. People used to post about useful things and make useful quests. Anxiety and depression are not "deciding to be better", they're straight up medical issues…
Because they were taking over the sub. If everybody who made a masturbation post had read earlier threads about it and would only post not covered issues we would have only 1% of the posts and nobody …
Sure. Just edit out all criticisms of the loapornstars and their lies and propagandist tactics. Also any criticisms of the loa communities and their idiot members. We're all painfully familiar with …

I'm not sure but I have some FA tendencies in dating and have needed "cool down" periods in past dating situations, as sometimes they really ramped up my anxiety and I needed space to regulate again. …
I’ve experienced all of the attachment styles in one way or another. What has been working for me is finding security in my friendships first. I’ve become so severely avoidant that im not pursuing a r…

That depends on where you’re reading. I see plenty of attacks on AP. It’s not a contest. You’re reading here, and like you said, folks most likely to want to post about issues are AP. Head over to the…
They can be self critical, but that's actually the opposite of being accountable and aware because typically it's just another way to ruminate. I also think that tendency in general is what drives the…
Yes, that's precisely my message! And that's why I started treating myself for my issues so aggressively since my late teens (now mid/late 20s). I didn't want to keep passing on the cycle, and this go…
Seriously. I've seen more avoidants that wake up to their own issues than AA's ever do. Like, it's 50/50 folks, everyone has to do their own work. Wake up and see how your own behavior ruins your rela…
I agree- but also (at least in my situation), there was definitely some cartoon level villain behavior. But I also don’t think that my case was just avoidance. I think other mental health issues were …
I was in therapy for five years up until last year. My attachment issues have persisted.
I actually have my doubts that therapy is ***the*** key for most avoidants, myself. I've been in and out of therapy at different points since I was thirteen, and *yes* it has helped with different thi…
Please look into the health issues that come along with being dismissive or fearful avoidant. You can't just shut off your emotions and experience no repercussions. That's not how our biology works, …
I feel like if it’s only been a week and you haven’t gotten physical and you’re not feeling it, it’s best to just leave. Running from a strong connection is different from running from someone you don…
I was very much like you, and I had lots of commitment issues. I didn’t want to be anyone’s “girlfriend”, because I felt I would lose freedom, so I would willingly choose unavailable people because I …
Thank you! I’m just a bit disillusioned with therapy. How can you work your commitment issues if you are not in a relationship for example?
Example 1 is something I'm experiencing from someone else so thanks for describing it so well. I agree example 2 is more common from my experience in dating. It's why I can't tell if I'm reacting to …
You’ve had one date. Attempting to diagnose someone’s attachment after one date & a handful of text interactions is highlighting your own attachment issues. Ground yourself, ask her out again (if you …
I am in the same boat. Had my FA (maybe DA? I never knew about attachment theory until her. She was extremely committed and IN. LOVE. for 2 years and was much more anxious and attached. Then she was j…
