I think their need for attention gives them a sense of validation. If someone else acknowledges that they have the problem, then it makes them feel better about it. Like someone who is skinny always saying they are fat...you tell them "oh no way, you are skinny and look good." That makes them feel better because they already know they are skinny want to make sure everyone else knows it as well.
