A fear of abandonment is a primal fear - it’s not possible to get rid of it entirely. It is actually essential for human beings to fear abandonment because it is a driving force in all our connections. This fear can either interfere with our relationships or reinforce them. No one likes being abandoned. But being abandoned when you struggle with emotion dysregulation hurts to such an extreme degree that it’s hard for the average person to comprehend. Many of the triggers for people who identify with certain disorder or dysfunction labels such as borderline personality disorder are tied to a deep-seated fear that their loved ones will leave them. This episode will help you learn how to deal with the fear of abandonment and find a way out of the self-isolating patterns that arise when this fear overtakes our lives.
