Hi Fuzzy

To me, when people use that term in a "problematic" context, this should be one of the kinds of thing they should alluding to:
https://psychcentral.com/disorders/h...rder-symptoms/
which can obviously also be problematic for the individual.............
Otherwise I would say that the term can be grossly abused by some people.
Seeking others attention or wanting or needing to be heard/reaching out/seeking, needing or wanting support/expressing or sharing feelings/ranting or letting out feelings or emotions etc can all be good things, can all be positive or helpful or natural or "healthy" things and when people can do that it if/when they need to it/they should be honoured and commended.........without attention seeking or seeking others attention being used in a negative context..........**** if someone needs that I'm glad that they find the ability in themselves to seek attention/seek others attention by speaking out...........

Just some thoughts...........
