In doing deeper core work—and understanding why we find ourselves stuck in patterns and situations—we are able to form healthier relationships with ourselves and consequently, have healthier relationships with others. The core of most mental health issues centers around getting to know your truth, understanding how and why you are where you are, and then creating awareness and a deeper understanding around it. Once you connect with yourself—and only then—can you start to develop healthier relationships with yourself and those around you.

If you're anxiously attached, your nervous system isn't only reacting to the present moment, but also to the patterns it learned early on, like inconsistent attention, emotional unpredictability, and having to read the room to feel safe.

Those experiences have wired your nervous system to associate uncertainty with connection in relationships.

So, when someone is hot and cold, distant, and hard to read, your brain doesn't see it as a red flag, but as something familiar. It feels like "home." And this is often what makes it feel like real chemistry.

And then there's the added effects of your actual body chemicals, like the dopamine you get from an inconsistent relationship.

You learned that relationships are something you have to work hard for, monitor constantly, and hold on to as tightly as possible.

Healthy relationships, however, take out that sense of urgency, making them feel slower, quieter, and even unfamiliar at first. Which, for many people, makes them think the relationship isn't going anywhere.

The reality is, the relationships you feel like you're constantly chasing aren't the ones you want. You deserve a relationship where you constantly feel chosen.

04/08/2026

It's hard to sit in the moment when you realize everything you tolerated wasn't actually normal. Not even because of the relationship, but in seeing with new eyes how much you adjusted, explained away, and learned to live with just to stay connected to them.

Please remember that you didn't do it all because you didn't know better, but because your nervous system was doing everything it could to protect that relationship. That's what it learned to do years ago, even if it meant abandoning yourself and tolerating more than you ever should.

When you're insecurely attached (anxious, avoidant, or disorganized), your brain adapts differently to relationships/attachments. It prioritizes maintaining the relationship over almost anything else (because connection is a biological imperative).

And when you look back at relationships you thought "weren't that bad" with new eyes, you'll likely see moments you'd never accept now.

Or maybe you're seeing it all now for the very first time. Deep breaths.

There is so much grief, confusion, and likely a good bit of frustration in this awareness.

But, with that awareness, you're able to make real changes to get what you actually need, like consistency, clarity, and emotional safety. And you really are deserving of those things in a relationship, even if you don't believe it yet.

04/07/2026

Your nervous system was doing exactly what it was supposed to. Your brain learned a long time ago to prioritize keeping a relationship over questioning it, especially when it felt uncertain.

You didn't ask, "Does this relationship feel good for me?" No, you learned to ask, "How do I keep this from going away?" Even if the relationship was a walking red flag (and everyone was telling you).

This is how you adapted, because your body is wired for connection. So, when a relationship feels inconsistent, your nervous system goes into survival mode and becomes more attentive, accommodating, and willing to stay just to maintain closeness.

Now that you're healing and becoming more aware, you're noticing where you tolerated things that you wouldn't now. But remember, at the time, connection felt more important than comfort.

Try your best not to judge yourself back then. Instead, move forward in teaching your body something new.

You don't have to abandon yourself to stay connected in healthy, safe relationships. And you deserve that kind of relationship.

04/06/2026

This all probably feels so much harder than you thought it would be. Honestly, it probably means you're on the right track, even though it doesn't feel like it. The "wrongness" often comes from doing something different than what your nervous system is used to.

For a long time, your body learned that when something felt uncertain in your relationship, you had to reach out, fix it, get reassurance, and close the gap as fast as possible.

So now when you don't immediately jump to do those things, your nervous system feels activated instead of relieved.

And that can feel incredibly confusing. But what's actually happening is that you're interrupting a pattern your body has relied on for years.

And interrupting that pattern takes repetition, support from safe people, and learning how to stay with yourself in moments that used to cause you to abandon yourself.

If you're here now, healing the best you can by breaking patterns you never actually chose for yourself, you're doing real, hard work. Be patient with yourself, your whole body, as you teach it something new.

04/04/2026

Listen, this is way easier said than done. I get that completely. You have to get your entire nervous system on board with the experience, because when you don't reach out, try to fix it, or attempt to pull them closer, your body is going to feel like something is wrong.

Your chest might tighten, your thoughts will likely spiral, and you might feel the urge to act right this second to just feel some relief.

This is your body reacting to something that's completely unfamiliar to you. You're used to taking action to feel safe again. And please hear that I don't want you to ignore yourself and your feelings in this. No, you need to support yourself through the moment instead of abandoning yourself to try to fix it.

How?

You can try naming what's happening, like "I'm feeling anxious."

You can do something grounding, like go for a walk, take a shower, go outside, or work on slowing your breathing.

You can just delay the reaction, if just a little. Something like, "If I still want to reach out in an hour, I can."

You can try to check in with the actual story by asking what you actually know vs. what you might be assuming.

And you can remind yourself that you're still safe, even if it feels uncomfortable.

Eventually, as you work through this, you'll create space between how/what you feel and how you respond. And it's in this space that you can build new patterns over time.

And when you build new patterns, you can choose new relationships.

04/03/2026

What if it's just been the pattern all along? Listen, if you're anxiously attached, this might be hard to hear, but sometimes it's more about the patterns than the actual person.

I'm talking about their unpredictable behaviors, the highs and lows, and the moments of connection that feel just out of reach (but for sure happened in the beginning). This is what your nervous system is responding to, because these patterns are so familiar to you.

Sure, you've likely dated this pattern a few times, but it's likely what you saw super early on, too. You always felt like you had to earn your caregivers' love, understood that attention comes and goes, and feeling connected isn't always consistent.

Now, as an adult, when someone has these same patterns, you're locked in. Yes, you might be interested in the person, but there is always a part of you that's hoping you'll finally get it right. You'll finally be chosen. The relationship will finally work.

But the actual shift that needs to happen is understanding that a healthy relationship doesn't actually require you to chase after someone, love isn't built on inconsistency, and you don't have to earn someone's presence to keep it.

You shouldn't have to be the one doing all of the work. You deserve to be chosen and cared for.

04/02/2026

Here's the thing about being anxiously attached... You know emotionally unavailable people aren't great for you, AND your nervous system sees them as familiar, and therefore, safe (even though they aren't).

So, when someone is hot and cold, a bit distant, and just vulnerable enough to keep you invested, it doesn't really feel like a red flag. It honestly feels more familiar, meaningful, and like there is a ton of chemistry.

Why? When you grow up with having to read a room, wait for attention, and earn closeness instead of receiving it freely, you now see someone who gives you breadcrumbs as "the one." It carries the same patterns that you've always known.

And then when someone is actually consistent, calm, and available, you feel overwhelmed, bored, or somewhere in the middle. They don't feel familiar, and they definitely don't give you anxiety, so what's the real deal?

But it really has nothing to do with them and everything to do with how your body relates to the different kinds of people. Your body isn't used to peace, calm, and ease. It only knows how to seek attention and give your all.

Are you thinking, "What if they think I'm not over them?" because you blocked them? Let me ask you a tough question: Why does their opinion of your healing process matter more than your actual healing?

When you block them, you're not sending a message to them but setting a boundary for yourself.

And the hardest part isn't even hitting the "block" button, but the days after when you catch yourself wanting to check. You start to wonder what they're posting or trying to send you. Suddenly, you get the urge to unblock them "just to see" and then attempt to block them again.

That urge is your nervous system in withdrawal. It's been so conditioned to seek information about them through scanning for signs, monitoring their life, and looking for proof that you still matter or they've moved on.

When you start to feel uncomfortable, remind yourself that you didn't make the wrong choice, but you're literally breaking the addiction to them. It truly does get easier with time.

Here are some things that can help:

• When you get the urge to unblock them, do something else that regulates your nervous system instead, like going for a walk, texting a friend, or putting your hands in cold water.

• Remind yourself that you're not missing out on closure, because closure comes from YOU, not them.

• Let yourself grief what you're letting go of. You're experiencing a real loss, and it's okay to feel sad about it.

• Take time to celebrate the small wins, like a full day or week of not checking in on them.

And if you end up unblocking them, just hit the button again and keep going. Keep choosing yourself. The block button is a tool that can help you heal. It's okay to use it.

Here are some pictures of the last couple weeks, friends, family, and memories.

Life lately…

Before 2026 even started, I had this quiet inner knowing that my world was about to shift, that things were going to start moving at a different pace.

And now I’m in it.

I feel more in my life than I have in a long time.
More present.
More energized.
More open to what’s unfolding.

And somewhere along the way, I softened.

I let myself open again.
To connection.
To desire.
To being met in a way that feels both grounding and expansive.

That part has felt really beautiful… and if I’m being honest, a little scary too.

But I think that’s how you know it matters.

There is something powerful about no longer holding yourself back from your own life.

And learning to trust what’s here. 💚✨💋

I've heard from so many of you who are grieving and trying to move on from an avoidant ex. It's so complex to grieve something that doesn't often have a clean ending to hold on to.

You had real moments of closeness and intimacy, and your mind can keep returning to those moments, trying to make sense of why they couldn't last.

So, when you're trying to move on, you have to let go of a person and gently come out of a pattern your nervous system got so used to.

Here's where you can start:

• Start by focusing on grieving the reality instead of the potential. Yes, your relationship was meaningful and had good moments, but it can help to name what wasn't consistent, didn't feel safe, and where you hoped things would change.

• Try to notice when your mind goes back to the "best moments." Your nervous system will remember and cling to the relief, but try to bring the full experience into the picture.

• Create more steadiness in your life through consistent routines, supportive relationships, and simply daily anchor points. You have to teach your nervous system a new rhythm.

• Avoid rushing your grief. There isn't a clear timeline here, but it's important to let it move through you.

• Be gentle and compassionate with yourself.

You don't need to shut down what happened or the parts of you that are struggling to let go. Try to find something steady to attach to while you ride the waves.

03/25/2026

When you're anxiously attached, it's really hard to learn to recognize that the absence of anxiety doesn't mean the absence of connection.

When you grow up in environments where your relationships with your primary caregivers were inconsistent, unpredictable, or something you had to work for or keep up with, your nervous system learns to associate activation or anxiety with relationships. You're used to the constant monitoring, analyzing, and recalibrating to keep your connection intact.

You've been doing it since you were a child.

Your brain has learned to expect these patterns, and over time, the feeling of being on edge, hypervigilant, or emotionally activated becomes what love actually feels like to your body.

And then someone who is actually emotionally available comes along. They text you back consistently, shows interest in who you really are, follows through with plans, communicates clearly, and doesn'y make you guess where you stand. It's what you've always wanted, and yet...

Your nervous system doesn't light up the same way. There's no chase, uncertainty, or need to decode their behavior. You don't even have to work hard to keep their attention.

And since your body has been conditioned to see activation as attraction, this steady person feels flat, boring, and like there is something missing.

The thing that's actually missing is... the anxiety.

And this is why there is more to healing your anxious attachment style than just choosing better partners. No, you have to learn how and actually start to retrain your nervous system to recognize a new type of relationship.

It takes learning that:
• Calm doesn't mean they don't care
• Consistency doesn't mean there's no spark
• Not having to chase someone doesn't mean they're not interested
• Feeling grounded in a relaitonship doesn't mean it's boring

So, yeah, the steady person might feel underwhelming at first, because your body needs time to adjust. You will likely find yourself questioning whether you're actually attracted to them or even feel tempted to stir the pot a little to create some drama.

Stay with it. Eventually, your nervous system will learn to feel safe here instead.

03/20/2026

This gets missed a lot in conversations like this: Most anxiously attached people are aware of the red flags. You can see them, but you also know there is so much more to the story than what others can see.

Part of you recognizes what isn't working in your relationship, but another part of your nervous system still feels attached to the connection, especially when it includes moments of intimacy, relief, or emotional intensity. I've talked about that in previous posts.

But there is another layer that we haven't talked about enough.

Sometimes, healthier relationships don't feel immediately believable. Sure, you see other people in them, and they are all over TV and movies.

But when your early experiences with relationships included inconsistency, unpredictability, or emotional distance, then your nervous system may have learned to associate those patterns with attachment and relationships. Not to mention, it's often challenging to see other types of relationships as possible when what you witnessed growing up is what you're experiencing today.

And then if someone more stable, calm, and emotionally available does come along, it feels completely unfamiliar and too good to be true. You struggle to trust that they're real and just end up waiting for the other shoe to drop. It still doesn't feel safe, well, at first.

That's why there is more to this than identifying red flags. There is deeper work to be done, because to really experience the healthier relationships you want deep down, you have to build the ability to recognize, tolerate, and trust them for what they actually are.

You have to learn to stay present with their steadiness, question the belief that it's too good to be true, and start allowing yourself to experience a different kind of relationship.

This doesn't happen overnight, but over time, your nervous system can start to learn that safe and consistent love is not only possible, but something you're actually allowed to have.

You deserve more than red flags.
