I always need to be the centre of attention and I’ve only just become aware of it, because a person I know recently said to me “why do you always feel the need to make it all about you?” after I’d been singing and dancing in front of my friends. I was so upset because I’d never realised. I definitely have an outgoing personality but since that statement now I really do notice my need to be the centre of attention. I want conversations to be about me and I want attention to be on me. I notice how when someone tells me their problem I say “oh me too, one time...” and highjack the conversation. I feel so ashamed now. I wish I didn’t feel the need to be constantly validated but I do and it seems to be getting worse. My dad needs constant attention and is very child like so I know where I get it from. I’m not sure what advice can even be given on this I just feel really bad about it.
