Psychologists and behavioral experts reflected on Taylor Swift's songwriting process and explained why her songs seemingly show her "toxic and self-destructive" behavior.
Since Swift's debut, the multi-awarded singer has been releasing tracks and albums about finding love, suffering heartbreak, moving on, and starting new. For instance, Swifties has created theories that her albums "Speak Now" and "Red" were about her exes, John Mayer and Jake Gyllenhaal, respectively.
Her "1989" album was also linked to her relationship with Harry Styles.
Taylor Swift's Discography Has Deeper Meaning
In an exclusive interview with the Daily Mail, experts explained the findings of their studies into Swift's song lyrics and how the attachment styles successfully caught listeners' attention.
Relationship coach Dr. Melissa A. Fabello, who has not worked with the singer, said, "All insecure attachment styles start similarly: with trauma in childhood. Among other factors, how caregivers respond - or attune - to children has an impact on how we organize ourselves psychologically."
She added, "That is, we learn to respond to the world around us based on how we best feel safe. If you have an insecure attachment style, it will show up in your relationships."

Meanwhile, behavioral psychologist Lachlan Brown said analyzing Swift's songs was enough to assume that the "Look What You Made Me Do" singer has an anxious attachment style. He added that her frequent references show her fear of being abandoned.
This resonated with sex therapist Dr. Amira Williams shared about Swift's discography. She set "Teardrops On My Guitar" as an example, noting that she confessed that her love interest was all she thought about at night and that it indicated an obsessive tendency associated with anxious attachment.
The experts also spoke about Swift and Joe Jonas' short fling in 2008 and how it led the crooner to write "Forever and Always."
Dating coach and registered psychotherapist Dayana Romero also shared details about Swift's anxious attachment style and called people who have it as someone "who takes a relationship and gets swept up in the feelings, losing track of the reality" of the length they know other people.
Currently, Swift is busy with her "Eras" tour while also working on her re-recording albums. So far, she already dropped the remake of her albums "Fearless," "Red," "Speak Now," and "1989."
