How To Overcome the Fear Of Abandonment

Hypnosis works for the fear of abandonment.

Fear of abandonment issues develop at an early age. One day you look around and an important person (a parent, caretaker, relative) in your life is gone, either because he/she intentionally took off, or died. Logic tells us that a person doesn’t die (unless they commit suicide) just to abandon you, but the fear of being abandoned, like all irrational fears, is not based on logic.

Not everyone who has been abandoned develops a fear of abandonment. And others develop this fear even though they were never abandoned. They experience abandonment through the imagination. The subconscious mind doesn’t distinguish between what’s real or imagined, therefore, their feelings and emotional responses are as real as the person who had a first-hand experience with abandonment.

The effects of the fear of abandonment

Those who are afraid of being abandoned have a fear of trusting others or showing their vulnerability. Their words and actions are suspicious and guarded. Eventually, what they fear the most is brought about by their own action; they’re abandoned because no one wants to put up with their negative attitude.

At the core of the fear of being abandoned is emotional insecurity. Emotional insecurity is developed at an early age when your needs as a child were not met. Your subconscious mind is imprinted with feelings of unworthiness, as an adult these feelings govern your decisions and choices, personally and professionally, and they reinforce your unworthiness.

How to overcome the fear of being abandoned

If you live in the moment, in the now so to speak, fear of being abandoned will become less of an issue. This may be difficult but if you take it a day at a time you will see results.

Don’t judge the people in the present by the actions of others from your past. Learn to accept people for who they are TODAY, not what you think they’ll become or do in the future.
 
Look your fear in the eyes, what’s hiding in the back of being abandoned? What are you really afraid of? Answer that question and deal with that specific issue. If you’re afraid a loved one is going to let you down or leave the relationship, show your vulnerability and share it with that person. You’ll discover, more often than not, this person has your best interest at heart, and would not intentionally hurt you.
 
There are no guarantees in life; you cannot control the action of others, therefore, you must equip yourself with tools that will keep you emotionally secure in spite of life’s challenges, including being abandoned.

Hypnotherapy gets to the root of your fear of being abandoned, and all fears for that matter, in the subconscious mind. You'll accept consciously and subconsciously that you're worthy. Your feelings of hopelessness and helplessness will be gone, and you'll know that no matter what you experience, you have it within you to overcome and thrive.
