Attachment issues often begin in childhood, where the bond between a child and their caregiver shapes how they view relationships, trust, and emotional security. When a caregiver is inconsistent, absent, or emotionally unavailable, the child may develop insecure attachment styles such as anxious, avoidant, or disorganized patterns. These attachment difficulties can carry into adulthood, leading to struggles with intimacy, trust, and emotional regulation. Common signs include fear of abandonment, difficulty maintaining relationships, heightened dependency, or avoiding closeness altogether.
