I think the person I mentioned thought the term "attachment disorder" fit me because I seem disconnected from people. I don't have close, lasting relationships the way other people do. But I don't think it's that I can't bond emotionally, just that problems get in the way. Some of this has to do with having been depressed so much. Some of it has to do with not having found the most compatible people for me...but that's also at least partly a result of the depression, not making the effort to do more to meet people, get involved, etc. However the natural, easy kind of connectedness I see other people having is alien to me. I feel there's something in me that doesn't work that way. I wish I could figure out what it was, why I'm like this.
