You mentioned being needy with friends, I struggle also with feeling that way, someone (a friend) told me I wasn’t needy but rather I had needs. It might be this way with you too. It almost certainly has its roots in your upbringing, it sounds like your emotional needs weren’t met growing up.

Thanks. I did tell my psychiatrist about things & she keeps raising the dosage
I was seeing a student therapist who only charged me $5 a week. I used different ones for two years. I could only use them for 6 months at a time then switch to a new one. The last one claimed that I wasn’t making progress. She worked with me for a few months.
As for friends, most of them don’t really want to hear about my problems to often. I can tell. The subject gets changed fast. Only one friend listens. She has similar issues & is an empath too.
I can’t keep telling her negative things though or she’ll probably start get to annoyed with me. I’ve been told that I’m to ‘negative’ in the past & that a few people felt like I treated them as a therapist. Ironically I listened to them too but I never accused them of that.
My emotional needs weren’t met growing up. My das is a narcissist & my mom is a critical paranoid nag. My sister is a stuck up phony and a psychopath.
She looked down on me most of my life for not being cool & popular like her. I was bullied in school from 11-16.
I didn’t have any close friends. I was bullied as an adult at work & by other people too.
I got very little support from most people growing up. I got most of my support online. My husband is definitely not supportive. I recently met two cool women who have similar issues, but I don’t think that I should be a drag to often or I’ll loose them.
