Attachment and emotional sensitivity

I feel extremely sensitive to anything that happens between me and my boyfriend

If he gets upset with me or angry at me even if it’s about something small I get really scared and I end up crying a lot, I apologize immediately and I always try to explain myself and but then he starts ignoring me or distancing himself from me and that’s when my attachment issues become really strong :( I literally start panicking because of his distance

The situation has become really overwhelming and frightening for me to the point while I’m sleeping my mind doesn’t switch off I just keep thinking and I keep getting bad dreams I really don’t know what to do anymore I need someone’s help…

Because you connect your value and worth and identity, you looking for that in people and their evaluation and how they see you. So you are conforming to them, adjusting your soul to people. No? That was me all my life. It came naturally... especially because I struggled badly with speech impediment....

But living like that... is ***. It is not a life. Depends to what degree u do so.

You need to learn to be yourself and find your value somewhere else... not in people. Because then you are slave to people and they control your life basically.

I’m really sorry you’re dealing with the same thing :(

Is there anything you usually do that helps calm your anxiety a bit?

Not going to lie i’ve been a mess and i’ve lost my self respect and he just exists and i don’t give him enough space to miss me or do anything.

I ask i talk etc i make time so that we can talk i’ve made my entire routine so that his can fit in and he is good he loves me but as an anxious partner i can’t sleep and our conversation left me drained rather than fulfil. I would love to have a partner like me but he tells me that iam acting weird and i should stop being like that and tbh whenever i put this game on of not talking first or being less clingy he shows up and he makes time for me until one little things goes wrong i become mess again.
