I have the adult version of reactive attachment disorder. I’ve dealt with this for 50 years. Anyone know of what to look for in terms of a medical professional?

      its quite rare for therapists to acknowledge RAD in adults unfortunately (i have RAD too!). look for someone who works with adults AND kids with CPTSD/PTSD. ore even autism. theyre more likely to understand

      Thanks. I have found finding a therapist who even know what RAD is, is very difficult. I’ll keep looking

      Hi Deacon, I'm 22 and was recently diagnosed with adult reactive attachment disorder. Finding the name was the first step for me, and then finding the right therapist. Find someone who knows what RAD is before you have to tell them, because it's a very tricky beast.
