For anyone suffering from these problems, just wanted to let you know it's possible to overcome them. It might be harder for some than others, but don't give up on yourself. I hope everyone is able to feel how absolutely freeing it feels to come through on the other end of trauma <3

You can have both parents present in every day of your life and still have abandonment issues. Parents that are together, non addictive and provide everything you need physically but not emotionally.

This is why I never get close to anyone. I was abandoned by my parents and abused both physically and emotionally by my grandparents and other family. I haven't been shown a lot of love in life and have been alone a majority of my life. It eats at me sometimes but I block it out. I had to overcome alcohol and drug addiction plus suicidal tendencies. All of that has taught me that I truly have myself and no one can stop me but me in progressing or finding happiness for myself.

I don't know if i would call it luck or destiny, but this is the exact problem that i'm conscious of right now, and i've been searching for solutions to my lack of trust towards others & difficulty opening myself up. this video came just in the right time.
Thank you!

I am currently struggling with mental health issuses of my own and I have access to therapy but its so hard to live in a house with someone I can't even talk to. This video has helped me realize that there is always a way to deal with issues in a healthy way without harming yourself or others. It is an everyday struggle but I know I can get through it.

Thank you for the video. My family in the states has passed on. My holidays and most other days are spent in solitude. I have a lovely family, though, in the Philippines waiting for me...when I am permitted to return there. If there is one thing that I realized, is that blood is not always thicker than water. Although nobody can replace blood, it is not about replacing, rather it is about continuing the love outside of that. I hope those in depression learn to strive again.

Only thing that sucks about therapy is it’s EXPENSIVE and it’s just a shame some people will never get the help they desperately need.

[camillemanly]

THANK YOU for the solutions. So many videos say they’ll help but they don’t, they just tell you signs and symptoms.

I know the exact feeling .. I’m just training myself to just deal with it and move on . My unfortunately happened throughout my whole life up until my mid late 20s and just understand why I’m like this in my late 30s so there changing me

[justjgaming]

Going through a very rough time transitioning out of depression. I am living with someone who is dealing with it and it’s rubbing off on me in terrible ways
It’s screwing up my play with the ladies, it’s separating me from the people I love but mostly it’s just ruining my mood and productivity within being a MAN! I watch these videos because they guide me to make the right decisions but I am just trying to create a space to where I am happy all the time so I can do everything I need to succeed

These fears are ruining my life... I can't fully enjoy any friendship I have for fear it will end abruptly... I probably should try EMDR therapy

[XYZ-chalky]

you mean "Lying on my bed looking up at the ceiling listening to Mitski's 'Nobody' on repeat" isn't a valid form of therapy for my abandonment issues?

[blondiesgirl]

I’m in love with a person with abandonment issues he’s unaware and it’s very difficult, I don’t want to give up on him because I love him. I want him to get help but he doesn’t think he has a problem. 😔

[barelyhere]

I’m pretty sure I have abandonment issues. Throughout my life so many of my friends have just left me. All of a sudden they just stop talking. I just feel broken. And now whenever I try to make a new friend in my head there’s a voice telling me that they hate me and they’re just gonna leave me. Also doesn’t help that I have EDS which means I’m in chronic pain all the time so I already feel broken and hate asking for help. In school everyone else seems to get stuff I I don’t understand so I just feels stupid. I know I need help. I know I need a therapist but my parents already do so much and I don’t want to bother them even though I know I probably should about this. My plan right now is to get help after I leave the house and go to college and then they won’t have to worry about it. Even though it’s years away I just hope that one day things will be better

One thing you cant tell a person how another feels only you know

[diezel]

I've come to realize as a man in this country I can't rely on anyone but myself to a certain extent and I'm fine with that.

[adrianalana]

Feel a little better listening to this video ❤️ thank you

After my mother abandoned me when i was 8, i cant even get near women. I can speak to them cordially but any time they get near or touch me i panic. I dont know what to do. Im almost 26 and im going to die alone because of this shit. Im afraid of getting close to anyone and because of that, I've never been in a relationship. I just want to be a father and husband. Thats all i want in life. everything else is meaningless to those two things in my eyes. Please pray for me.

This was useful, in my case I didn't have this fear, or at least it wasn't always that intense, my best friend nearly left my life because she got into a relationship and forgot she had a life out of his boyfriend, I was also in a relationship and at the time I got so insecure I had an argument with my partner, we solved it but recently this friend came back to my life to tell me that not only she broke up with her boyfriend once, she's coming back with him, and I haven't known about her since, I'm starting to realize maybe she's the one causing me this anxiety and I don't want to project this onto my partner anymore, it's unhealthy and bothersome for me.
