I Am Emotionally Needy

Starved.


This is a word I tend to want to use a lot in describing how I feel. Being the writer I am, I try to steer away from being repetitive. Except, it fucking works...so, to hell with the rules!


I am starved, starving, malnourished, dehydrated.


I have depleted my self supply of love, affection, attention, care.

I have been sucked dry. All of my love taken and thrown away. I have protected everyone but myself. I am convicted, quilted.

Every ounce of energy and time and emotion and care and love siphoned from my well and never replenished.

Neglected, taken for granted, underappreciated. Insignificant.


And so...for this I am needy. Fucking desperately needy.

I have never been provided these things. I have given them all away and I have left nothing for myself.

I used to have more self respect. I used to love myself more, care for myself more. I used to take advantage of the time I was given.



Eventually the well runs dry.

Sooner or later the garden needs tending.

Sometimes you need to spend more time taking care of yourself (even if it means spending less time taking care of others for a little while). You are NOT insignificant, even if some people treat you as though you are. If nobody will help you tend your garden, you’ll need to do it on your own for a while. You are capable of doing this, and you are worthy of the attention....even if you sometimes don’t feel that way. ❤ 🤗 🤗
