Hi Girl....First of all Cheers to you on reaching out to someone.Let me share my views on this.Emotional attachment is a normal part of development. You are driven to connect to those that provide a sense of protection, comfort, and validation, which is absolutely fine.This isn't very uncommon.However,Attachment can become toxic if you rely too much on others to satisfy emotional needs. The goal of healthy emotional attachment is finding a balance between getting your emotional needs met by yourself and by others.
There is a thin line between healthy emotional attachment and unhealthy emotional attachment. We all have the need to emotionally connect and bond with others. However, it is when these needs direct us to abandon our self-worth, peace, and freedom of choice that this connection can become unhealthy..
Next Steps
You can reach out to a Psychologist/Therapist for further clarifications.
In therapy, you can work through the origin of your attachment issues and have a better understanding of why they impact your current relationships. Also, you will be able to explore how emotional attachment affects existing disorders such as depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder. Another benefit of going to therapy is that it provides a safe space to process emotions and feelings.Good Luck to you.Take care.
