DMM Coffee House #85: Information transformation in DMM attachment B-strategies

December 8, 2021 by CSI

Why aren’t there (or are there?) B or “light”/non-transforming “versions” of all the sub-strategies or how do features of A+ and C+ strategies show up in B1-2 and B4-5 individuals? Do we expect to see less variability among B strategy users considering how many fewer substrategies there are?

The A and C strategies each comprise 8 sub-strategies (or more in the case of an A strategy, if we include A3- compulsive attention, A4- compulsive performance, both the social and sexual forms of A5, and both the social and isolated forms of A6). In contrast, there are only five B sub-strategies, and in a sense only 4, because B3 is defined by balance itself rather than any particular flavor or behaviors. Why do even and odd A and C only get one “representative” each within the B strategies. Can we expect to see “light,” non-transforming versions of features of all the A and C strategies in B1-2 and B4-5 strategies, respectively, or should we not expect to see this?

Share your experiences of working with clients who use attachment’s B self-protective strategies in this session hosted by Dr. Melanie Langer.
