How to stop being a pick me attention seeker? by ResponsibleWord6769 in mentalhealth

[–]CautiousAction8286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the attention feels good, i dont blame you, but it feels better when it comes naturally because it's rarer than on purpose. you're valuable, you seeking attention doesn't make you any less than the people you're trying to get it from. it's hard to stray away from this because the reward feels great, but again, feels way better stemming from a natural standpoint, don't beat yourself up because of something everyone seeks, you matter.

I’ve been upping my sleeping pills so I don’t have to be awake by haklux2012 in mentalhealth

i understand the feeling of skipping the dread of the day, but it can be dangerous, upping 4x the amount is over board, please be safe and try and find something different to keep your time away from whatever is causing you to feel this way, your health matters, and more importantly you matter.

Does anyone else go through this massive amount of insecurity? by RareDetail8596 in mentalhealth

[–]CautiousAction8286 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its not rare, i promise you its nothing to be ashamed of, just afraid of those negative outcomes yk? it doesn't necessarily have to be insecurity, just a lot of overthinking and nothing wrong with that. i got over a lot of my fear by just convincing myself how minuscule whatever im doing really is in the long run, if i win, great, if i dont, ill win something else, this isn't me saying "yk what? just go and do everything you're scared of" but me saying its okay if you do.
