6 Signs You're Too Emotionally Needy

Have you heard of the term emotional neediness? While it may sound very negative, it just means that you may have the tendency to depend on others too much to validate or approve of you, or your emotions.

Know that some level of neediness is part of human nature, and many of the signs that may make someone overly needy are not their fault. If you find yourself relating, remember to be kind to yourself. You can always work to correct or improve upon behaviors that might make you too needy.

"you suffer from anxiety"
"you have trust issues"
"you doubt yourself"

" gotta catch em all"
I feel like a Pokémon master on symptoms

[priscillajimenez]

I wasn't a needy person but just super affectionate. Over the years of hurt, I can feel I've gotten more needy and so I try to stay distant at the same time because my personality was already overwhelming for some before and I don't wanna mess people up now, especially being the age I am I feel like it's embarrassing.

The wrong people will always teach you the right lessons

[thewea]

Sometimes you wanted someone doesn't mean you need them, so be care who you choose

[wendy]

So, if a person DOES have some/all these traits… then what?
It’s nice to put a label on many of the issues in these videos but I wish they had a “follow up” video that was linked describing ways you can help, heal or improve.
I guess it just seems like a ton of “diagnosis” with not so many “help” videos.
More videos on how to heal/help/improve/grow would be great.

[courageandcompassion]

To reiterate, “emotional neediness” is perfectly fine. Our emotions make us all need things. Being aware of your traits and how you are will help you better function in your life. Please take care of yourself. ❤️

[vaibhavm]

I'm so honoured they made a video on me!

[sangitasutar]

I liked how she sounded sad at first but then happy when actual video started...Like her voice can express her feelings..

[tommygunn]

I've tried everything in the book to do away with my anxiety issues, but no matter what, that other person just can't handle it and I don't blame them. This is why I was better off alone. Thanks for this

[HiImUnderYourBed]

Talking about only 2, 3 and 4 signs.

How can’t I be unsure of me when people judge me for being who truly I am?
I have social anxiety and no one will give me support. They will say I’m crazy and to move on.
I have trust issues because everyone I once knew left me for others, and all because I’m an introvert.

[meenaahuja]

Meow!
Let us all appreciate Cindy for managing things so well and being so down to earth while replying to our comments .

[lokilover]

Yep. I know I am a handful which is why I distance myself from others.I don't want to bother them with my problems.I have too many so I can't have a stable emotional connection with anyone.But its ok.

[lonewolfnergiganos]

How can I be emotionally needy when I'm happily single?

[michaelfels]

Anxious attachment is not permanent and we can become securely attached …

[miltsus]

I want to change, and not be so emotionally needy of my boyfriend.
I wanna fix myself before its too late and he has had enough.
