"Is My PARENT EMOTIONALLY UNAVAILABLE?" | AVOIDANT PERSONALITY DISORDER | Psychotherapy Crash Course
153#trauma #AVOIDANTPERSONALITY
#tamarahilllpc
Avoidant personality in a parent can be difficult to navigate. How do you navigate a relationship with someone who doesn't seem invested?
Remember being asked over 7 years ago by someone consulting with me about their parent "how do i live with my parent?"
Avoidant personality disorder is a personality disorder that isn't easily treated with medication and therapy. It will take a lot of work for a parent with ingrained patterns of behavior and thinking to change.
Sadly, children being raised by avoidant parents may find themselves struggling with avoidant attachment as adults. This means that you may find it difficult to connect emotionally with other people and trust them long enough to build healthy connections.
This in and of itself is trauma.
In this video, I discuss the basic traits of a parent with avoidant personality and how they can negatively impact your life.
