Understanding

I need understanding…I have a friend who keeps dumping all her difficulties my way. She keeps using me as a sounding board. She thinks this is a healthy way for her to deal with whatever is affecting her in her life..Somedays I have difficulty dealing with my own psychological baggage. I don’t need someone else’s. Then she keeps hashing out her expenses, her job, her perceptions on how others have “wronged” her..I’m like F’F’F’ please! Give me peace!! I know she’s #Needy #Understanding #PTSD #Depression , happens in varing degrees…Somedays the extrenuous, the perifipheral BS just more than annoys me.

Talking #Needy #Overwhelming #Anxiety

I talk... A LOT. I say most of the things that come to my mind. I like to talk about things that interest me or apply to me, as everyone does. That being said, I'm still staying with my grandma. She never told me that my talking so much overwhelms her, which I guess it does that to a lot of people so I shouldn't talk so freaking much... Anyway, she started crying today in the car after telling me she was overwhelmed by all the things in the world. Basically I talk about everything too much. This made me feel really bad about making her feel like that, but it also made me feel like I don't really have someone I can talk to all the time. When I get quiet, that's when you know I'm not okay, usually. There's obviously exceptions to that both ways, but that's not the point here. The point is I can't just talk and talk the way my mind constantly wants to. I feel like if I can just get the words out then I'll be able to comprehend what's in my mind a lot better. This is why I talk to myself a lot. I'm too overwhelming to others when I do that though. It doesn't seem like there's anywhere that I can just think out loud. I feel like I have to vocalize what goes through my mind even if it's just in whispers when I'm alone in a room. But I can't do that all the time and that's really hard for me to accept. My family is fine with it for the most part cuz they really don't care if I'm talking as long as they're not trying to concentrate on something. This is just really hard for me, even though it makes sense. Idk maybe I'm just crazy.

I'm afraid of being abandoned. I'm afraid of everyone leaving me. I get so attached to people who care or understand. It's so hard for me to not talk to people. I try to understand people who don't want to talk when things get hard, but that's not the way I am so it's hard for me to understand why people feel that way. It hurts when people don't talk to me. I want to know why people feel sad or hurt or angry. I just feel so hurt. I know people get busy and have a life, but I still feel hurt. I don't know why. I just feel like everyone ends up hating me even though I know that's not always true. I just want to know if someone I care about is okay. I just always feel hurt by people. I don't know if that makes me a bad person or toxic. I fear someone being hurt by me and not letting me know I'm hurting them. #Depression #Anxiety #abandonmentissues #Needy #clingy #needlove

i probably did a stupid thing

so against most people's better judgment i did in fact text him again. (past posts have more context). this could either go well or really bad. i told him how i know a lot of it was my fault, because really it was. i wasn't being that good to him even though he wasn't being that good to me either. i told him that i will fight for him cuz even though he might not, i still love him. i've never wanted anything more than someone who loves me and wants me and cares for me. i know this probably wasn't the smartest thing to do but i'm not always relying on my mind as much as my heart. in my heart i don't think it's time for us to give up so yeah, i'm fighting for this. #Relationships #Anxiety #clingy #Needy let me know what your thoughts are on how i handled this. please no aggressive hate cuz i can't take that right now

How do I let him know how much this is hurting me?

My boyfriend and I are taking a break right now and it's honestly one of the hardest things for me right now. I'm super clingy and needy and I've told him this. He says we need a break cuz I get too anxious about him all the time. I can't help that. We didn't even talk about taking a break, he just decided it by himself. I can't help but think he doesn't want to talk to me anymore... I miss him so much. He's constantly on my mind and it's just so upsetting that he won't talk to me. How do I let him know how much this "break" is hurting me? #Relationships #needyou #imhurting #clingy #Needy

#clingy #Needy #Relationships #abandonmentissues

I've accepted the fact that I'm clingy and needy. I get it. I'm going through a divorce, and I've been dating this new guy for 8 months. He's all I think about. When I don't hear from him every few hours, I think he's mad at me. We've already talked about getting a house together, as he currently lives with me in my one bedroom apartment. We both have full time jobs, but I don't know if it's insecurity or what, but I know I'm clingy. I start to have panic attacks when I don't hear from him. Anything I can do to combat this? I think my brain is just being irrational. How can I calm it down?

Not very likeable.

Anyone know how I can get over this feeling? Until I get over this I think it will be like a self fulfilling prophecy. #Needy #Hatemyself

What’s the level of clingness in a relationship considered normal?

I recognize myself as a clingy / needy person and try to hold back but I always get the feeling I’m coming across as someone very needy and too much to handle and push ppl away (and yet not having my needyness met - causing me never ending frustration) #clingy #Needy #Needyness #Relationships

Why do I over-cling to new people I want in my life, and ultimately push them away? #BPD #clingy #Needy

I rarely let people into my life. They will get me to like them and as soon as I cross the line into allowing my heart to open, I become overly clingy and expect way too much attention from them. Really quickly they run away and ghost me. How do I stop myself from becoming so emotionally needy? I want to love a man again but I ruin my chances right away.....
