You know, I used to get really angry when people would say "oh they're just doing it for attention." but now, i'm beginning to think these people were right. Some people complain about every little problem they have with no intention on fixing it or making things better and they just suck the emotional energy out of the good souls that try to help them.

My question is; what does seeking attention give people? Why do people do it? Does it arrise out of some psychological deficet? What is this deficet?
