I came clean about my self harm, not to get attention but to try to stop.
I hate the term attention seeking. If someone is actively seeking attention don't you think it's because they need attention? Some of us didn't get the attention we needed as kids so maybe we need a little more now. I don't see that as a problem. I see it as a need that needs to be fulfilled. It shouldn't be a negative thing. I usually tell my group T that I'm feeling needy when I need some attention. Feeling that way today actually.
Hope you are okay,
W
