Interpreting Your Attachment Style Results

Based on your quiz results, you may primarily identify as having a secure, anxious, avoidant, or ambivalent attachment style. Depending on who you’re with, you may attach using different styles. An insecure attachment style isn’t a flaw. It’s an adaptation that once protected you, and knowing your go-to style is the first step toward attaching to others in a healthier, more secure way.
