This is What Avoidant People Wish You Knew

@psych2goAbout
Welcome to Psych2Go! We are a grassroot organization with the mission of making psychology, mental health, and self-discovery accessible, relatable, and a little less lonely. The founder initially a psychology student, found that psychology is super useful, but unfortunately wasn't accessible to the public like it is today. Through collaborative effort, him and a bunch of animators, students, made bite-sized, animated videos, to explore topics like anxiety, depression, trauma healing, relationships, emotional intelligence, self-love, communication skills, ADHD, autism, introversion, and more. Our iconic sprout mascot represents growth, resilience, and the hope that—with the right care—we can all thrive. Why subscribe? Because Psych2Go isn’t just a channel. It’s a global mental wellness community, where everyone can feel seen. Let’s grow together, one mind at a time. 🌱✨ For Collaborations & Partnerships: 📩 [email protected] 🎨 Animator & Artist Opportunities: [email protected]

Video Description
You want to let people in—truly, you do—but every time closeness feels too real, something inside whispers, be careful. For those who feel avoidant, connection is both the thing they crave and the thing that terrifies them most. It’s not coldness; it’s self-protection shaped by fear of rejection, past wounds, and emotions that sometimes feel too big to carry. This video unpacks what avoidant people wish you knew—how their quiet push-pull dance is really a fight to feel safe and loved at the same time. If you’ve ever felt torn between wanting love and needing distance, what’s one thing you wish others could understand about you?
