¿Someone with emotional adiction?

Posted by elianamagali12 @elianamagali12, 5 days ago

Recientemente e descubierto que sufro la enfermedad de la adiccion hacia mi pareja, gracias al libro de la terapeuta Robin Norwood quien explica sobre ello, con absoluto detalle, el libro se llama " Mujeres que aman demasiado"
Recientemente con mi pareja decidimos distanciarnos para cada uno poder evolucionar en la etapa que esta en su vida y asi posteriormente volver a estar juntos.
Acepte el desafio pero siento un vacio, miedo y desesperacion enorme al no poder controlar nada de lo que sucedera para con el, por suerte comenzare terapia en abril sin embargo si hay alguien en este espacio que sufra de lo mismo que yo sufro, le agradeceria compartirme su consejo o su mirada desde el entendimiento, muchas gracias

This may sound strange to you, but your "over-attachment" is not in the emotions. You may have had trauma or many traumas which overwhelmed you. It is like an empty space opened where the trauma hit. In meeting and being with your partner, that empty space was being filled. Having sex releases many hormones into your body which "chemically attaches" you to the other person.
The psychological anticipation of being together, plus being together, plus the hormones, creates the over-attachment you speak of. It is very hard to break, especially if the same thing is going on with him. There may be love, but this attachment syndrome is not love. Let us know how it goes.🧡
