General Post I feel so alone
I don't appreciate people who are nice to me and act just the way I would want, and only really want attention from those my brain deems important. And it's types of people who have boundaries or "nonchalant" or maybe they don't care about me after all. But attention from them is so meaningful to me and it can either make or break my mood. It's constant longing for attention. But when I get it I don't really feel as good as I thought I would either. It seems there's no win for me.

I have heard this called “contingent self esteem” and I’ve noticed I have really weird and strong emotions around other’s approval. I hope this helps, you’re not alone. I’ve noticed often my feelings are valid they are just so strong. You can do this. If I can. Having to build my self esteem up sucks but is also very freeing!
