Anyone like this or knows someone who is like this?

Idk like Im looking up this stuff right now and Im starting to think I fall under this category especially with how things are going for me now. But not like OD. I think I would fall under entry level emotionally needy.

Anyone else like this, know someone like this, or was this way and changed it?

it just stems from certain insecurities in your life.

Feel free to elaborate more

To be honest, I dont even know what it is I want to get at.

Idk this is like that moment where you find something out about your self that you really dont like. And this article that I read painted it like an emotionally needy person like as if they were and cancer and Im like oh #!!@ is that how I am? And idk I felt the need to discuss it without thinking about what I wanted to say. So thats my fault.

But yea it does stem from a lot of insecurities I have about myself and the very little love and respect I have for myself most of the time.

I guess I just wanted to hear about others experiences. I apologize for the lack of clarity.

I'm pretty emotionally needy most likely because I spent the first several years of my life in an orphanage/ foster care. You should probably seek counseling/ therapy of some sort. It'll likely help a lot. Good luck bro.

I'm in the same boat as you man, I'm depressed on and off. To be honest it may be because I constantly worry about what people think of me.
I have mixed emotions.. My depression has been gone for the past 3 days, though.

seriously. Do you have a girlfriend? Every girl to me seems emotionally needy. Maybe if you had a steady girl you she could give you attention. The flip side is you will start to see that females are even more needy, and maybe that will help you stop acting that way. Who knows.

until then read my twitter. Maybe I'll make you laugh/cheer up.

Nah I dont have an official girl or nothing like that, just ones that I "talk" to. Nothing official who give me attention. But thats not good. To just be happy when you have someone to give you that attention, but then when theyre gone you back to your miserable self. Thats like whats going on with me now. Im only happy when Im in a relationship.

And nah Im not down now or nothing, I just wanted other opinions, points of view, etc. But thanks though

It's not wise to take any article you read at face-value. Sure, it had some valid points, but it's only one side of the story.

You've taken a great step in seeking therapy. Therapists are trained professionals who explore all of the options and will help you get the help you seek. Hopefully you'll get the answers you are looking for.
