Your entire mood rising and falling based on whether they gave you attention.That's not a crush. That's limerence. And it is one of the most consuming, disorienting experiences a person can have — made worse by the fact that you have to sit ten feet away from it every single day.In this solo episode, Brianne breaks down exactly what limerence is, why the workplace is the perfect breeding ground for it, and — most importantly — how to get yourself out of it.In this episode:What limerence actually is and why it's not the same as attraction or a crushWhy work environments create the ideal psychological conditions for obsessive attachmentThe three most common workplace limerence dynamics — including why an unavailable coworker works like a slot machine on your brainWhy limerence is almost never about the other personThe role of attachment wounds, anxious attachment, and emotional neglect in making you vulnerable10 signs you're currently in workplace limerence6 steps to get out — including the one most people skipThe critical difference between emotional intensity and emotional safetyWhy anxiety is not intuition, obsession is not soulmate energy, and dysregulation is not deep loveThis episode is for anyone who has ever felt consumed by someone at work — and couldn't understand why they couldn't stop.
