sweet girl.
first of all...so what if you "just need attention". we're human, we ALL need attention and affection at times. we Especially need/want it when were hurting...it's ok to need attention. especially here.
sorry i missed when you were on chat...i'm in a out of different rooms all day, so i just pop on when i can.
but you are doing the right thing dear. you are reaching out to someone and stating what you need. that's so good. that's more than i could do for the first 2 years of therapy!noone likes to feel 'needy'. and those of us that aren't used to getting any kind of attention anyway, it is especially hard to ask for it.
but i want you to know, it's ok to need it. and to ask for it. especially here.and sometimes being 'unhappy' can almost become a comfort zone for those of us that have been unhappy for so long.
honestly my depression can be a comfortzone to me. i'm so used to the feeling, i've learned for many years how to 'cope' with them, and when their gone, well it can almost be scary.its ok angela...
i hope your session goes well.
take care ok?i'll be thinking of you today/tonight.
best wishes.
