Adult attachment disorder (AAD) develops in adults as the result of an attachment disorder that goes untreated in childhood. It begins with children who were not allowed proper relationships with parents or guardians early in their youth, or were abused by an adult during their developmental stages. According to attachment theory, causes and symptoms of the disorder are rooted in human relationships over the course of one's life and how these relationships developed and functioned. Symptoms include neglect, dysfunction, abuse, and trust issues. These symptoms are similar to those of other attachment disorders, but focus more on relationships later in life. To be diagnosed with AAD, you must demonstrate at least 2–3 of its symptoms, including impulsiveness, desire for control, lack of trust, lack of responsibility, and addiction. The DSM-5 does not recognize it as an official disorder, but AAD is being studied by several groups and treatment is being developed. Some studies suggest splitting AAD into two types, avoidance and anxious/ambivalent. More recent and advanced medical practice advocates for four categorisations:Secure: Low on avoidance, low on anxiety.
Avoidant: High on avoidance, low on anxiety.
Anxious: Low on avoidance, high on anxiety.
Anxious and Avoidant: High on avoidance, high on anxiety.
