Attachment style

Test your attachment style

Attachment style refers to the way we emotionally bond and connect with others, especially in close relationships. These patterns are often formed in early childhood and can deeply influence how we respond to intimacy, conflict, and emotional needs throughout our lives.

There are four main attachment styles: secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized.

• Individuals with a secure attachment tend to feel comfortable with closeness, trust others, and maintain healthy boundaries.
• Those with an anxious attachment often crave closeness but fear abandonment, leading to clinginess, emotional highs and lows, or overthinking.
• People with an avoidant attachment may distance themselves emotionally, struggle with vulnerability, and prioritize independence over connection.
• A disorganized attachment style is marked by a mix of anxiety and avoidance, often rooted in trauma or unresolved relational fears, creating confusion and inconsistency in relationships.

These attachment patterns can strongly impact emotional well-being, self-esteem, and the success of romantic and interpersonal relationships. Many people are unaware of their attachment style until they begin to notice repeated patterns of conflict, emotional discomfort, or dissatisfaction in their relationships.

Understanding your attachment style can offer valuable insight into your emotional needs and guide you toward more secure, fulfilling connections. With self-awareness, therapy, and intentional relationship work, it’s possible to shift toward a healthier style of attachment.
