Hi Lottie01
Welcome to the forum!
I have AP and it doesn't just affect my relationships. I think it affects mostly my personal close relationships.
Most of my friendships are with secure people. So it doesn't really affect that.
I think, my behaviour affected my ex who was a high functioning DA which made my AP behaviour go into complete overdrive. It's kinda made him withdrawal further which has resulted my anxiety to increase. This was a few months ago. It was a toxic dance. since he is avoidant and I am anxious preoccupied we might trigger each other even more, because the more he withdraws the more anxious I get and want to try to talk to him and this causes him to withdraw even more!
I am now in the process of seeking therapy to help me to deal with this. A lot of my issues stems from my childhood.
At this moment in my life, I refuse to get into any relationship until I address my issues.
