Hello all!
I am very glad to have found this forum. I am a 28-year old woman dealing with some emotional pain from what I've read is deemed "emotional abandonment" by my parents. When I read the Iceberg theory, I was in awe because I could relate to everything the author said.
I do suffer from fear of abandonment in my romantic relationships, and it honestly does affect them. I am also constantly worrying that I may be disposed of or replaced by someone better.
I acknowledge this issue, and I am just basically looking for a support group. I am also here to provide any words of encouragement or a listening ear.
