How much attention do you give to people in return?

Hugs.

I hope you practice emotional self care in order to soothe yourself when others are not available to meet your needs.

I don't know how to self soothe...

[black-roses]

I don't know how to self soothe I rely on others to self soothe me and if I perceive being ignored I result to a negative way of trying to get attention, I.e cutting, starving myself, insulting myself so that others comfort for me. I am looking for comfort to soothe my identity disturbances, anxiety and uncertainty about myself, my friendships and life.

I didn't see it that way I guess it's a two way street. I usually don't want to bother people by giving them attention because I don't want to get in their way or drag them down. So I wait for them to contact and initate the conversations first... I guess it's part of my insecurities and distorted way of viewing my friendships.

Hi Black-roses
i hear where you are coming from. i got way too attached to someone and that was just online and still struggling to get over it now that the friendship is over, but in the end you have to be your own best friend, and practice the self care as one person above mentioned. people will come and go in your life, you really need to learn to love yourself that is what i am working on.
