Everyone needs it in some sort of way. You need it and I need it.
Maybe you need it as much as I do?
Do you need to be shown appreciation to feel happy with yourself or your relations?
I can tell you that I do. I need to get appreciation from those I love to feel good or better.
I can notice this about myself very easily because when someone shows appreciation of me or includes me in something I value it very much.
Especialy physical appretiation such as hugs or an arm around the shoulders.
Do you feel the same way as I do? Or do you appreciate the verbal appreciation more?
A lot of times I feel lonely, like I am alone despite that I am surrounded by poeple. At these times a hug, a hand on the shoulder, or a hand around the shoulder is very very appreciated from my side.
I am an overthinker. I think to much and for too long. At these times I tend to put myself down extremly low. I will convince myself that everyone thinks I'm disgusting and that people are grossed out by me. Hold on to this.
A couple guys in my class (Aaron being one of them) seems to like to tickle me. They stick their fingers in my sides, which scares me as well as tickle me (I am very ticklish).
This helps me keeping those thoughts away from my mind and it in a way shows that they do appreciate me doesn't it?
Very often I really need a hug. I need to be in someone's arms, I need to feel safe, I need to feel loved, appreciated and I need to relax. I really need that.
I hope you had a better day than me.
xoxo Joanne
