Thank you!
Thank you
@@TimothySmith73 Thank you, Mr. Timothy Smith! I love your comment. 😆 I figured, if I'm taking notes for myself, I might as well share, if it could possibly benefit others with hands full. Of course, there is a wonderful chart in the video, but not everyone gets to watch as they listen, so glad my little list helped somebody. God Bless. Take care of you & yours! Thanks for making me smile! 😁 💕🙏🏼🕊️

You are welcome!! :)
I like that you made such a clear list. I spent over a decade in therapy, and I've had to discover each one of these separately
Having learned how to improve emotional intimacy with myself has really helped me in regulating my emotions. Learning to be at peace with myself, ( most of the time, )is worth more than gold and diamonds, to me. ❤
If I can regulate and soothe myself, why should I need intimacy with others?
@@TrebizondMusic-cm6fpMaybe it has to do with belonging?
I really wish you were my therapist.
I feel frustrated and resentful all the time, as an autistic woman my emotional needs have rarely if ever been met and there is no chance of changing that. I don’t feel belonging, safe, decompression (because god forbid, people control their children and stop abusing them) or intimacy. I feel self connected, autonomous and I challenge myself, but these are all self, the others are external. I can’t control external forces!
I admire you because I feel that you know you can control how you respond or if you react to what I call ‘the idiocy’ surrounding all of us.
Just know that there’s someone out here that believes in you, that admires you, and sends loving kindness to your spirit. ✌️🫶🏼
The way my inner voice shockingly responded "emotional needs? We get to have those?" let me know how bad it is over here... Disconnection City
I don’t feel belonging, safety, decompression, intimacy, and self-connection. I feel so much frustration and resentment. So depressed.
Paula,,, I relate to you...

Same. A lot related to a horrible childhood. So damaging as an adult.
I see you all, you are seen and you are needed in this world. You are loved 💙
I feel like I’m a robot learning to human again
That's a great way to put it!
Depersonalization and derealization had controlled me for decades. I'm learning to human again 😁
I feel like I'm just broken beyond repair 😢
Hey, at some point I felt like that too! I think every person that goes to severe trauma does, but the work is worth it. Also, I recommend looking for “Kintsugi” which is a japanese art where they repair broken vases. And they turn out to be even more precious than before, YOU WILL TOO! 🩷🫂
I tried to fill my needs alone as much as allowed
Give yourself time. Be gentle and go slow, you can be healed if you want ❤
@@Ydiventuregroupit's time to find a therapist 🫂🌹
I understand
Belonging comes from relationships, frequently interacting with people whom we trust and know closely and who know and trust us, also people with whom we can relate to, be it through common interests or life experiences. Belonging can grow stronger over time as well.
I would categorize it differently than having a life purpose, which is more self-actualizing.
Yes, although after reading Viktor Frankl's works on Logotherapy I can't help but see a strong connection between belonging and self-actualization. He was pointing out that percisely to the extent to which you're focused self-actualizing, percisely to that extent you're unlikely to meet this need. One needs to focus on something greater than himself to get this need met. Frankl was calling that self-transcedence. You need to see yourself as a part of something bigger. You need to belong to something greater and to be aware of that belonging.
Omg I had none of these growing up, maybe except of some challenge. And I wonder why I'm so fucked up.
Wish I'd heard this 40 years ago 😊So important to understand...
I needed this video I’ve been in AZ for almost a year now and I feel like I’m struggling to belong and find friends I’ve found some in my church but my social life is still lagging behind. I do appreciate that you said it’s normal for not all of our needs to be met 100 percent of the time
Autonomy has been a need I really struggle with, I grew up in a fundie household and so little about a person is left for them to decide and there’s a lot of tension when you grow differently than expected. I don’t know how I’m even going to build a life for myself I feel like the recipe for a perfect mess of a human
I could have written your exact words.
I have none of these. Thank you for this education & validation. I hope & work for a different reality!
Another excellent video. I reflect that Im fortunate enough to have most of my emotional needs are met, Im an introvert who is involved with NGOs and has a lover in a long distance relationship .
I hope the other commenters and viewers of this video will be able to get more of their needs met in the near future.
Your content is just invaluable. Thanks a lot for all your work!
Man, this makes sense to me. ALOT. It did not until now. But it does now.
I understand now more how other's were and are making me feel and me others. Love your videos.
And no I don't. Belong? Nope. Safe? Define that lol. Nope . I am challenged at work. I have not felt any type of intimacy In a while now. Anyone I am interested in has a Significant Other anyhow. No Autonomy. I like to fish and that helps me decompress. So I've been making a point to go more after work. An Hour or so does wonders for me. I have been trying to be far more self aware of my own actions and traits. Keeps what's good. Work on what's not. I keep repeating the same mistakes and that bothers me. Things like my Active Listening Needs more work. Prioritizing things. Etc.
But I am getting there. And I have come a long way. But I now understand alot more why I feel the way I do alot.
Fishing is one of my things, too. I've made good friends fishing.

Same.
This is that good shit, keep ‘em coming 🙏
I live the way she says, 'TODAY' :)))
Thank you! Your videos are SO informative and helpful. They are always clear and I appreciate the length (less than 10 minutes).
Thank you for this video. It's very helpful to have it laid out like this. You are a gift to us survivors.
I'm isolated most of the time because I have MCS (neurotoxic chemicals are everywhere when I go outside - car fuel smoke/gas, smoker, perfume in the stores and also outside). I love alone time as an infj and my interests and hobbies are too unusual for most people. What helps me is my imagination and love in my imagination and dreaming.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful and insightful wisdom.
Just yesterday I had the similar conversation with someone.
Thank you so much dr Nicole. This is very helpful. Italy here 🖐️🙂
And... In the most cases, we have not good therapists for narcissistic abuse survivors here.
I can't think of anything to challenge me. I know I need something to do but I just can't think of anything I like. Getting older often feels pointless. Being unwell doesn't help much either. I seem to have the others sorted to a basic level even if not optimum. I like the way you simplify things.
My dog challenges me to get off my butt!
Your videos have changed my life ❤
Thank u for doing this!!
Thanks for the video ❤
What emotional need is wanting respect? And which emotional need is wanting appreciation?
That’s dignity
I think maybe it's a part of each.
Intimacy
thank you for making this video, please make playlists of your videos because it helps us to find your video according to our test
So insightful. Thanks a lot Dr 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Thank you
I would never thought about myself
Very interesting and, I think, most useful for me
Thank you
It's good to see a clear list. I hope this is backed up well; it seems solid. More helpful than just vaguely talking about "needs" without specifying what they are.
Does the order of the list reflect a hierarchy of them? Is the hierarchy different for different personalities, maybe?
Some of us learn as adults that our emotional "needs" aren't welcome - as if they're childish things to put away, now that we're no longer cute. It depends on the environment and the relationship.
Autonomy seems expensive enough that the price for it as an adult is a large portion of safety and intimacy.
Thank you for this!
Brilliant psychologist 🙏
Thanks so much, Dr. LePara
Actually this video was heaven sent right on time!!! Recently I saw a post that detailed signs of emotional dependency and I knew I was repeating that pattern but I did not know exactly what my emotional needs were. Now that I know them I can work through them! Thank you so much!!!! 🩷
Thank you. Very helpful.
Thank you 🙏🏽
❤ excellent video
Hi ok I watched it to the end. At 6:48 How can we have the tools to calm ourselves ? I’d appreciate a video on how we can meet these needs in ourself. I’ve not really anyone in my life that I can talk to or trust to be myself with.
I like Yoga Nidra. It's a guided meditation you do lying down. It helps me ignore the mind chatter, and feel and experience myself and my feelings in a safe and supported way. I like Ally Boothyrod, Amanda Penalaver and Zoe Kanat to name a few.
I desperately need to decompress
I can’t even watch all this. I don’t have these. I never did. 😢
I'm sorry.
@@JLakis thanks 🙏 for being kind 🥰
I'm really struggling to meet my needs for belonging and intimacy. I frequently feel so lonely. It's like, where tf is everyone? Does nobody else need togetherness? Am I the only one who enjoys the company of other people and makes an effort? And even when I'm with my friends I feel invisible.
Probably why I prefer animal friends.
I feel that i dont have all of that
❤ty
1:30 👌👌👌
Wow….I feel like NONE of my core needs are met. I must really be screwed up!
❤
So if we suffered emotional neglect in childhood these are the needs we really need to work on to get met?
Is there a video about the solutions ?!
I don’t feel my chair belong in my dining table in my home .I feel I am watched all the time as if Iam an odd one out and everything I do is thought of as not so normal than how other people behave and do this is going on for more than 40+ years of arranged marriage.Iam always never myself for fear of being found out to be not like all the others .is this a way to live my every day life?now Iam 64years and I want to live alone even if Iam doing only mundane things in an ordinary life but I can be myself the whole day
Not sure emotional intimacy works as so many people are more likely to not want to understand others.
None of them are being met, and don't care to meet other's needs any longer.
Do you ever think 🤔 about opening your practice again?!? Probably not you’re able to reach more ppl this way, you have a larger audience
My outlook on money changed when I realized someone making $400K can retire broke & someone making $80K can retire a multi-millionaire. You cannot build wealth without putting money in its rightful place, you have $100K to invest. Where are you investing it?
You're correct!! I make a lot of money without relying on the government. Investing in stocks and digital currencies is beneficial at this moment .
I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Stacey Macken, has been an amazing experience.
Honestly, I'm surprised that this mrs Stacey Macken is mentioned here, came across a testimony about her from one of the beneficiaries on the CNBC news, she seems to be doing extremely well.
You trade with Stacey Macken too? Wow that woman has been a blessing to me and my family.
Waking up every 14th of each month to $210,000 it's a blessing to I and my family... Big gratitude to Stacey Macken
I feel like none my needs are met right now 🥹❤️☀️🌙
Thank you
