In this episode, we unpack the psychology of texting and how digital communication can quietly reinforce anxious, avoidant, or disorganized attachment patterns — especially when there are no facial cues, tone, or real-time context to ground us.

We talk about:

• Why texting feels so emotionally charged
• How anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment show up in texting behaviors
• Long silences, delayed replies, over-texting, under-texting, and “reading into it”
• How constant contact can blur boundaries and imitate intimacy that isn’t actually there
• Why always being “on” robs us of self-soothing and distress tolerance skills
• When texting supports secure attachment — and when it undermines it
• Why calling and in-person connection matter more than we think

I also share how my own relationship to texting has changed — from using it as a way to create closeness and reassurance, to letting connection develop without forcing constant contact.

If you’ve ever spiraled over a text, avoided replying altogether, or felt like your phone had way too much power over your mood — this episode is for you.
