I think the way you express your needs are very important. Some of us do not know how to do that as we were never taught how. I know I wasn't. I suppressed everything and just kept putting everything in this little room in my head and locking the door.
Yes, I believe everyone needs attention. I try so hard to give people positive feedback at work, because I believe it is good to find something worthwhile to commend someone on. I do the same thing with my son - he needs to know that he is important and that his needs must be taken care of and expressed. It's not easy.
