Being a Fearful Avoidant can feel exhausting. You might crave closeness one moment and fear it the next. You might find yourself stuck in cycles of connection and withdrawal, unsure how to stop repeating the same painful patterns in love.


In this video, Thais Gibson breaks down five hard truths about being a Fearful Avoidant and how to finally overcome them. You’ll learn the deeper psychology behind your push-pull behavior, the hidden self-betrayals that block intimacy, and practical tools to begin healing at the subconscious level.


You’ll learn:

✅ Why you crave deep connection but fear vulnerability and loss

✅ How early emotional conditioning wires you for both anxiety and avoidance

✅ Why overgiving and self-abandonment keep you stuck in one-way relationships

✅ How unmet needs and fear of rejection drive emotional exhaustion
