Lots of misinformation around about attachment. It isn't about breastfeeding and bed sharing. It's about feeling soothed and regulated in proximity to close figures in your life.
If you don't have a secure attachment growing up, you usually struggle to feel secure with others as an adult.
But an insecure attachment style is not a life long sentence.
If you put in the time to reflect, grieve and grow ...you can earn a secure attachment and heal and move forward.
