Common Questions and Answers about Anxious attachment disorder

Avatar f tn Ambivalent, disorganized, and avoidant attachment are types of insecure attachment but are not considered an attachment disorder. RAD (reactive attachment disorder) is typically applied to children who fail to attach (for example, children adopted after being in an orphanage for a longer period of time). Developmental trauma disorder is, regretfully, also not a specific disorder, although it should be.
Avatar n tn An attachment disorder alone can cause a child to do this. If he does have an attachment disorder - he needs SERIOUS help from a traine professional. It is a horrible disorder caused by abuse/neglect in early childhood. (Horrible not just for them but for everyone around them.) He does need to be evaluated to find out if he was sexually abused also. How could the courts rule that it didn't happen if he was evaluated for it?
Avatar m tn After the birth of my son which was last year, he always seemed annoyed and unhappy. When I consult the doctor regarding this, they told me it is due to Reactive Attachment Disorder. When I searched on the internet for some information regarding it, I got scared. I am attaching a website for reference"https://www.scientificanimations.com/3d-medical-animation-describing-reactive-attachment-disorder/".
Avatar n tn I'm a 31 year old heterosexual male who has had a long dark relationship history. I'm a recovering sex addict who has been married 3 times and always has to be in a relationship.

Avatar f tn Dissociative Identity Disorder and other forms of Dissociation, PTSD, depression, Boarderline Personality Disorder, Anxiety, Sleep problems, OCD, and so on and so on. Medically it would probably depend on the what exactly occured. I am only saying all of this as a person who is dealing with it, has been for most of the 2000's, and who has been dealing with a mood disorder for a lot longer than i care to say.
Avatar n tn My daughter is 13 years old but developmentally delayed and has bipolar disorder. Also diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. (she was adopted at age 3, just to give you some background that might be relevant to my question) She has started destroying her stuffed animals. I find her cutting their limbs off, heads off, etc,, She cut the head of a baby doll open as well. And tonight I found a knife in her bed under the covers!? What is going on!???
Avatar f tn But I have done some research and I am wondering what the difference is between disorganised attachment and personality disorder? Is disorganised attachment classed as a personality disorder of borderline or something? I don't know much about personality disorders but it as come up under the same subject as attachment issues when doing a bit of research. And if it is classed as the same thing, can it be more easily changed?
Avatar f tn It's true, your attachment, although it needs to have run it course for your own health, is natural. It is your mother that has an "attachment disorder" i'm afraid. She may or may not grow out of it. You need to get on with your life, surround yourself with good friends that want to get ahead in life, and you'll find your home and your heart will be as one. Then you will find a partner and bring children into a non co dependent relationship.

Avatar f tn "Eating: Odd eating behaviors are common, especially in children with severe neglect and attachment problems. They will hoard food, hide food in their rooms, or eat as if there will be no more meals even if they have had years of consistent available foods. They may have failure to thrive, rumination (throwing up food), swallowing problems and, later in life, odd eating behaviors that are often misdiagnosed as anorexia nervosa.
Avatar n tn Maybe do some research on attachment (secure, insecure, anxious, avoidant). It is entirely possible that your son could have a mood disorder (though you will be hard pressed to find a mental health professional that will diagnose anything in a child so young), or perhaps just a difficult temperament.

Avatar f tn Does anyone know how to heal anxiety/ panic disorder without medication? I'm on mirtazapine and xanax as needed. I hate it. Tired of feeling like a zombie.
Avatar f tn I have a 7 year old daughter who seems to be very mildly anxious, i have had 2 teachers now talk to me about her anxiety and over sensitivity. They both have told me it is very mild, and just try talking to her about it at home. I have done that, but it seems to have gotten worse in the last month. She has now started putting her clothes and hair in her mouth all the time.
Avatar f tn This sort of thing is somewhat common in very young children (I read it relates to them discovering their ability to "create" something). In older kids, it may be a sort of what's called reactive attachment disorder. It seems to be common in adopted children, so if your son is adopted, that might be a factor. The smearing part sometimes might be a kid testing or trying to set boundaries with others.
Avatar m tn After taking him to many doctors, no one can seem to understand what is wrong with this child. The school diagnosed him of having Reactive Attachment Disorder or RAD. They have two other children who live in the household with them and she is afraid that the adopted one will harm the other two.
Avatar f tn Of that reason attachment disorder should be ruled out.
