Our early experiences with caregivers can really affect how we make friends later on. Here are some common problems that can happen:
Attachment Issues: If we don't feel secure with our caregivers, we might be scared to get close to others. This can make it hard to trust our friends.
Social Skills Deficits: If we didn't see good ways to interact with others when we were younger, we might struggle to talk to people and solve problems with them.
Emotional Regulation Problems: If our caregivers were inconsistent, we might find it tough to handle our feelings. This can lead to friendships that are full of ups and downs.
To help fix these problems, we can use some strategies. Things like therapy, learning social skills, and having good experiences with friends can help us build healthier relationships and feel better emotionally.
