Anyone have any ideas of how to break out of the need to always be connected to someone? I need the closeness and connection, I'm always feeling lonely otherwise. What ends up happening however is that I suck up from people's energy and drain them. No one can be here for me 24/7. No one can be there all the time all the way. But I just need someone!

Hello onwardsbound: I believe this is your first thread here on PC. So... welcome to Psych Central.

I'm sorry I don't think I would have any useful suggestions to offer you. Hopefully there will be other members, here on PC, who will have some suggestions. In the meantime here are links to 3 articles, from Psych Central's archives, on the subject of Dependent Personality Disorder:

Dependent Personality Disorder Symptoms

Dependent Personality Disorder FAQs

Dependent Personality Disorder Treatment

I hope you're finding PC to be of benefit.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
