How to explain your anxious attachment style in a new relationship?

Question

I want to make sure he’s aware of It early on so he knows my triggers and can hopefully work with me on It. Thanks!

Answer

I would write a list of all of your triggers, how he would like them handled, and then communicate that to him. It's important for you to understand though, that he is not going to be responsible for catering to every one of your triggers. Your attachment issues￼ are yours to work through. ￼Your triggers cannot be used to control your partner's behavior. ￼

Answer

Do you have attachment issues or anxiety with relationship You need to consider getting therapy.

Answer

This is for you to work on and handle not to list out/explain to your new partner. I would let him know that you have this diagnosis- I’m assuming you’re not self diagnosing here- and getting therapy- again assuming you’re working on this issue with a professional- and you are going to work hard to not put it on him. 
It’s your responsibility to deal with your issues and triggers. Not his.
