My issue is that I have an anxious attachment style, and also have moved around near constantly in my life. I’ve now for the first time found myself “settled” into a place with a robust community, but I struggle with not being included into every “friend group.” It’s almost like high school or college dynamics at play. I have the opportunity to focus on a select group of people I could build strong relationships with, but find myself distracted by groups or individual people who reject me.
That inner child spirals out and I lose sight of everything I do have. My 2024 goal is to get a hold on this so I would love any books (or podcasts) that would help.
