And it's not a given at all, because if you go on social media and you go online,
People have this idea that the attachment style that you have as a child is the attachment style that you have as an adult.
And it's all fixed at the age of two or the age of three.
But it is completely false.
And that's not what the science finds at all.
And the fact of the matter is, is that we can change our attachment style.
It's not like in one specific category.
We can have slightly different attachment style with different people, although we do have a general one.
that sort of rules.
We are primarily social species.
So we're very malleable and very, very able to reshape and remold our attachment style.
And I find it very promising.
And that's why even like in this new book, I really invented a new therapy that's called secure priming therapy to help people understand attachment logic and really help them move
towards greater secure attachment, because that really helps in relationships.
Yeah, so there's anxious, avoidant, secure, and fearful avoidant.
And the first three ones are the major ones, and fearful avoidant is much more rare.
And it's really like a script that we have in our head or the way that we experience the relational world around us.
And so if we have an anxious attachment style, we love closeness, but we also are very sensitive to potential threat to the relationship.
So if we don't get a text back very quickly or if we feel that there's a disruption in the connection, we really are afraid that the relationship may not last.
We worry a lot about the intactfulness of the relationship.
