    I always knew I had deep rooted abandonment issues originating from my childhood, so much that I had to do what I despised the most, which was abandoning my childhood best friend. Not because she did anything wrong or was at fault, but because I knew that my issues would’ve sabotaged our friendship one way or another. I tried to please her for years, changed my interests to align with hers, kept her to myself in fear that she’d leave me for someone else etc... I knew that my obsession with making her dependent on our friendship was unhealthy, even when she was too naive to see that. So I just left, which was one of the hardest but most relieving decisions ever. She deserved better and I knew that, maybe then I could finally cope with my childhood trauma in a healthy way

    As someone who has had abandonment issues my whole life (I’m 30), but who has made the steps to work on myself despite that, the best thing you can do is to learn to value your connection with yourself FOR yourself over valuing your connection with other people. You’re so afraid of people leaving because you value them being in your life over yourself. You need to change that. It doesn’t mean you can’t find happiness with other people, and it doesn’t mean you “don’t care”, we’re human, breakups are always gonna be hard. Just work on yourself and learn to love yourself so you won’t throw all of yourself into another person. It’s not easy, it’s hard work and takes a long time…not many people are willing to put in the work. But trust me, it will be worth it.

    A few years ago, I was diagnosed with BPD. One of the check marks was if you had abandonment issues. At the time, I didn't believe I did at all. Now, after years of confusion as to why I felt certain ways or did certain action, it finally clicked. I actually have major abandonment issues. It's quite horrifying when all these situations you could never understand, just all of a sudden click and make sense.

    The reason why we feel that way is because we were lead to believe that we will always get hurt from the repetition of pain and trauma in the same areas. When we loved naturally, it was abused and tortured. Now we are left fighting for our hearts to not be broken and by doing so, the results may not be as positive to others or to ourselves but it is because we are in an unfortunate situation. We want to love and be loved but the fear of doing so feels traumatic. If we did not continuously get abused in such a beautiful and sweet place at our core, we would have a better gauge on things. The bigger issue here goes outside of us. The issues are the people who are narcissistic and nonchalant which are more common and a higher percentage of people than those who actually cares.

    I feel this way…
    My best friend came over to my house for the first time and meet my mom.
    They got close and started hanging out
    I didn’t see anything wrong with it but they jokingly said “I’m gonna steal your mom”
    I felt weird but just laughed and said “Yeah right, you can try”
    Because I knew that they would never replace me.
    But they started calling my mom the same way I call her “Má”
    And my mom wants them to come over even when I say I don’t want to invite them because I want time for myself .
    My mom called them a nickname today at night that they only called me ..
    It kinda daunt on me…when I felt the pain in my chest…
    I played it off by laughing and joking with them but right after I got out the shower I started crying….
    I didn’t want to feel jealous and be selfish..
    Idk why I’m so hurt but the feeling of being replaced…
    it was like I feeling of betrayal that I felt, I didn’t want my friend to come over at my house anymore and I wanted to make them think that my mom didn’t like them that much and make them stop calling my mom “Má”
    ….
    Not even my brother calls her that and I don’t get jealous with him and my mom being together and bonding.
    It was just my friend that made me feel that way…I know my mom wouldn’t replace me but it just my own insecurities…
    The same friend also did the same when talking to my cousin…
    I felt the same feeling but it hurts more when they do that with my mom.
    They also…kind of make me feel guilty when I share my achievements with them because they didn’t do well and start thinking negative. They compare themselves to me, specially in one class…soccer..Idk why but when I accidentally ran 6 laps on try outs instead of 5 they said, “I’m gotta make sure I run 6 laps or more too” and I just looked at them and my other friend seemed to notice that they wanted to compete with me at everything…
    It feels like they try to have and take things that I got…Idk if I’m being over dramatic..

      @IgaHeimann Рік тому +12

      It sounds like it is your friend who might have some issues. Maybe their own family doesn't accept them so they see you and your life as perfect, and obviously want that too. It is not okay when it makes you feel this way but i believe that no one's trying to deliberately hurt you, so I think you should try talking this issue out. It might make your friend hurt and exposed so you may want to start with noting the way it makes you feel, and also talk to your mum? Of course, it'd be ideal if you could also access a psychologist or anyone who's actually capable of giving professional advice in the matter - unlike me 😅 Wish you all the best!

      I feel you so much and you're not being dramatic! Your friend is definitely playing with you whether unconsciously or not! I say set a distant with them lest you'll be like me who developed trust issues.
      Perhaps maybe you are well-loved in your family and his isn't so he try to be like you and take those people who is capable of loving someone, he is jealous of you...
      If you're like me you might have a good heart and might say share your lives with him, save him, but trust me you cant... you'll feel your life is threaten every seconds and it'll affect your self esteem!
      If ever, let him find his own worth and let him search for the love he crave, never give yours... leave or distant yourself immediately from those kind of people before its too late for you... or is it already :

Is that no matter where I move to (I’ve moved a lot) as long as there’s a mosque I’d always have people that love and care about me genuinely. Even though they know me from nowhere. I remember first thinking it was some kind of setup like why is everyone so nice to me and caring lol. But now After being Muslim since 2013 it’s Just a normal thing now. There’s nothing like Islam just people don’t look into it and just believe the media. I invite you to Islam bro I promise you would never be left.

    Number 4 is me. I start to pull away whenever I start getting close to someone, because I don’t want them to leave and I don’t want to be hurt. All interpersonal relationships end eventually, in some way. It seems so naive to think otherwise.
    I feel like this might’ve happened because of my mom marrying my stepdad when I was 10. I cried a lot because we were really close and now some dude I didn’t know very well was taking her on dates until ungodly hours of the morning (we shared a room at the time due to limited space). I cried a lot because I thought she’d never come home. They got married and nothing got better because he’s a toxic ass. In a way, that just confirmed my fears. She didn’t LEAVE, but our relationship changed.

I have given up on being liked by everyone, and being "popular". But there's a benefit: I don'y care about the stupidity that all teenagers have to do. I just do it if I feel like it.

    I think I have abandonment issues. I was in a serious relationship with my ex 3 years ago and I honestly thought that I was gonna marry him. We had so many break ups and patch ups through our relationship. One day he told me that he loved me, and two days later he left me. The only person I really loved actually left me. Now I get easily attached, always look for red flags/flaws (so I can find an excuse to leave them before they leave me), I need confirmation all the time that they still interested in me, if they don’t text me for one day I’m afraid they lost interest and would leave. So I start to get pushy And clingy, and it ends up with me scaring them away.

    The clinging to bad relationships hit me. Over the past 4 years after highschool ended and I slowly saw my closest friends less and less, I got into friendships that were honestly s**t for me. I was basically being used as a sponge by all these other lonely people who only called me for that purpose. It's like we both acted as eachothers life lines whenever more interesting things weren't going on. I knew these particular friends didn't have any interest in me, and when I chose to quit smoking weed and drinking beer, I realized there was zero purpose of me really chilling with them. One relationship was basically just going in the guys car and driving around to places to smoke weed out the window. This particular person stopped smoking weed near the same time as me, and we both actually realized there wasn't much of an incentive for us to see eachother after that. We didn't excersize together, play video games together, have similar movie interests, he never drank, I had never been to his house, the only real thing about me and him seeing eachother after weed ended, was to play some basketball and catch up on the past couple weeks we've had. I do feel like that chunk of my life left behind some intense nostalgia, the nostalgia of being a year out of highschool, being invested in dank weed and sitting in your buddies 2011 nissan ultima just ripping bong hits and getting baked together, and just listening to new music and driving around, then getting heavy tasty munch and then getting dropped off after the parents were in bed, baked basketball too, it was a nostalgic vibe I'm actually sad I'll never return to. I still see the guy though twice a month or so, as I mentioned. The other guy was a similar scenario but he had a small unit he paid rent for. I basically just came around whenever he wasn't doing anything particular, which was actually alot. We sat in his dark room with the Xbox One on, basically watching criminal minds on netflix, or streaming NHL or NBA and betting on it. He'd always win his bets, I'd always lose. I lost $1000 total until I quit entirely. We'd just sit there ripping poppers and green bowls out the bong, then I'd drive home at 2-4:00AM. I'd get drunk there for no reason sometimes, just being depressed. I worked with him at a landscaping company, until he decided he didn't wanna see me anymore, so he spread a rumor about me to the boss and got me fired and then told me YEEET as he got me fired. I had also quit smoking as much around that time. After I got fired because of his lie, and was off poppers especially, I noticed this guy was a bad and lonely a** dude who didn't give a s*** about anyone. It's weird how you don't really come around to those analyzations whenever you're getting high af with him. I probably acted different too in general whenever I'd see this guy every day. Now I was seeing this guy at another time then my other friend up above. I seemed to be on and off weed entirely depending on if I was becoming friends with another lonely guy who was a stoner. I wouldn't smoke weed if I wasn't seeing them. The last guy was a narcissist who'd have me over after work, almost nightly, as he just needed a sponge before going to bed. on weekends or important days, I didn't exist much to him, and he kind of kept the fact he had me over to chill every night a secret from his family and other friends (who I knew). You'd enter his house through the garage, and it led into his basement, and upstairs was off limits. You'd rip poppers in his garage, then go inside and do basically whatever he wanted to do. Only when I stopped poppers, I started seeing that it was actually a pretty garbage relationship we had, we didn't actually have much in common, in terms of laughter or interests, we just ripped poppers and then I'd sit there like an object as he did whatever he wanted to do. I'd watch him play Warzone in an xbox live party with his other friends for an hour or two sometimes, just sitting there like I didn't exist. I still see that guy sometimes, but It took me effort to turn it from seeing him nightly, to once every two weeks. On some sort of objective level, we are still friends, but now that i'm sober I don't have a filter for just sitting around there in his basement doing what he wants to do, especially considering we dont have common interests and stuff. Lastly pretty much my best friend growing up, he moved into a house by the local college we all went to. I'd visit him everyday practically with the "drive around" guy I mentioned at the top. I thought we were all keeping the good times alive with my best pal from growing up, but in reality, things were changing in the friendship. He quickly became addicted to drugs and changed overall as a person, he was no longer absorbed into life back at home. We still saw this guy all the time until the actual friendship part about it didn't seem to be there, his room was trashed and not taken care of, and basically people came around to rip poppers. When it was all said and done, he moved back home where we lived, but would only contact us twice a year after that. So it's crazy how any friendship I thought I was in zen with, where I'd see whomever nearly on the daily, wasn't really a friendship and it was just dependency on both sides of it. Once the slightest thing about it changed, you'd realize there wasn't really anything there in the first place.

To sort of pump the breaks on feelings and expectations at first like you said and not do anything super soon that ties you to the person very much. Nothing wrong with taking things slow. I get what you're saying about guys not being confident/ready for relationships for reasons that we can't control and have nothing to do with us. I guess all anyone can do is build happiness for themselves outside of relationships, not take things too personally, and then hopefully at some point something will fall into place.

    👏 Thanks! Very Informative! I have almost 6 of them. My father got away when I was 8-9 and my mom was very sick, and she spent too much time waiting for him. She was a good mother but at some point she forgot herself waiting for him to come back. As a result, I grew up detached, very independent so I could watch for myself without anyone. I am also very pleasant to others, until I started forgetting my needs and emotional health. That's when I searched for help with psychologists. Now I feel good alone, maybe because of the inner fear to be abandoned, I don't know. But at least, I'm not pleasant anymore and I got away from unhealthy relationships. If I stay in a relationship, I need it to fulfill my emotional and spiritual needs. I worked my insecurities, jealousy and selfsteem. I'm now another person. Still working on me to fix that damage. Blessings for all of you 💗

      @5MARYANNA5 4 роки тому +5

      @@soleilsonira4467 oh dear. I must tell you something. The reason why you didn't know of this before is simply because we don't want to show to others how truly insecure we feel inside, how vulnerable we are. And that's because we think that if we tell our partners how we fear they will abandon us they will use it against us at every chance.
      I ve never confessed to my past relationships how much I feared they will get tired/ bored, whatever, of me, and they will abandon me.
      You do not confess such a thing to your partner.. unless you know the person for years and you feel confident enough to project all the flaws in your soul, how deeply insecure you truly are as a human being.
      If the fear is intense though after a bar argument or after some relationship situation where she doesn't get your attention enough to keep the fear limited, she will act in panic and you will notice that, doing anything it takes to keep you with her because the fear of you abandoning her in her soul is that enormous that it even exceeds her judgement of being still in love with you still herself or not if for some reason the relationship isn't going well.
      I had and still have but to a bit lesser extent the fear of abandonment not only with relationships but also with friend's, I always deep inside fear that for some reason they will forget about me or they will simply leave me and stop calling overall. But I'm working hard on it and I try to catch the thought of this fear right at the moment, as soon as it tries to take over and make me sweat in fear.
      I can also tell you where it comes from. It's our parents. Poor or wrong parenting. It is always them! My mother, when I was a kid, used to have bad fights with my father in front of me and she used to threaten him also in from of me that she would leave him and me altogether...I didn't know I ve still had memories of it as a child, with Psychotherapy I recalled all these faint but painful memories.
      Apart that, she used to put her own personal life above me and used to leave me very much alone when I was younger after school, to this day I'm still mad at her and when we fight I always automatically tell her she should have never become a mother and how much that hurt me continuously and for years till I was 14 and didn't just care anymore if she's home or not.
      It almost always comes from wrong pathogenic parenting.
      Talk with your girlfriend, open an honest and brave conversation about it with her, slowly and progressively, ask her if her parents did something to hurt her when she war younger, talk to her into opening her soul to you and all the dark secrets will progressively but for sure come to the surface and you will be truly surprised.
      Not only that, but that will help her trust you and go much easier with your relationship, she will be filled with deep appreciation and love for you cause she will notice that you truly care... That for us suffering to that thing is truly huge!
      We don't trust people, we always assume the worse is about to come. It will take your relationship into a much more deeper, more open, more honest and truly human and mature stage where you are both in they level that you can enjoy your relationship deeply with no fears and insecurities but joy and trust

    @conor1534 2 роки тому +3

    I feel like I'm pretty much over my fear of abandonment by now. I understood the root cause was my fear of being alone.
    So in order to face this fear I pretty much just cut contact with everyone and learned to be happy being by myself. I know that this is kind of seen as a bad habit like self-isolating or refusing to get close to anyone. I feel like people thought I was acting out or something, but I felt like it was necessary. It was a bit different in the sense that I understood at this point that no one hated me as much as I thought I did and I was responsible for my own self-inflicted misery from being close to people. Attention was like a drug I was addicted to that helped soothe the pain but ultimately made me unhappier in the long run, so I had to cut myself off from it completely
    It was pretty agonizing at first, but then I learned that being alone wasn't so bad and I ended up developing more into my own independent person separate from the burden of expectations of others. I used to live and exist for the sake of others, but now I live for myself.
    I feel like people seem to enjoy being around me more because I am not as emotionally burdensome as I once was. Or maybe it seems that way because my perspective of myself has changed and I value myself more. Either way, I'm not afraid to be abandoned anymore. It isn't because I can trust others to not abandon me, but because I now know I will only ever need myself to be happy and if others don't want to be around me then it's fine.

There is a part of me that believes the voice and other that says "You are not okay, you aren't normal. You need to change".. I can ghost easily. I am eather overly attached or just plain gone, no in-between. But even now I am thinking to myself that this sounds so fake and so much like I want attention.. and I honestly believe it, maybe I do want attention.. but then why would I also feel unsertainty about sharing these feelings if that where 100% true? Why would I even look at videos like these if I knew I was being manipulative? I also connected with the video on the part that I move on too quickly and find the next exiting thing to do.

    • @verdynn6217
      @verdynn6217 3 роки тому +1

      honestly i believe it could be both! in related terms, it could be that you have a fear of loosing someone, and that is causing you to subconsciously convince yourself/over analyze things to try and be extremely cautious around others to prevent attachment and possible loss to happen again, or putting walls and distance around yourself so that you don't get overly attached to someone - which could possibly make another potential loss hurt less (a sort of self defense mechanism that can end up being very harmful to yourself and your relationships.) in unrelated terms, it could be that you possibly have really bad confidence issues, anxiety, or trauma. i don't believe its something that can be linear, i personally believe that it can be many different things, and related to many different things! but what you are going through is very serious, and it can be extremely harmful to your mental health and being as a whole, so please please seek out help regarding these issues. best wishes!

      The reality is that being vulnerable is a scary thing and something I've had to work on over the last few years. However, when someone doesn't put you down for opening up to them there are few feelings that are better.

    I told my close friend that I was having a suicidal breakdown and after, he proceeded to not bother messaging me and even ignored my messages. It's been like two weeks.
    EDIT: After I posted this comment, I tried to talk to him one more time and he ignored it. We aren't friends anymore.

      Do not think about this friend and focus on yourself, send yourself love, be your best friend, promise yourself for example to always be there for yourself, to listen and to pass on before your loved ones. If you don't feel good with your friends, say so. If they don't listen, find other better ones.
      Courage, love, hoping to have helped you

      Always remember in times of stress to stop whatever you are doing, breath, take a break if needed and most inportantly lowering your brain activity, ie, relax and stay calm.
      + remember that you don’t need to rely on friends or anyone to know you are valuable person. Because you are

      Mental health is something that you need to experience yourself to understand. A lot of people just don't go through this so they write you off as being crazy or weird. You don't need these people in your life, people who are unwilling to understand.

    Ever since I was really little, I had a huge fear of abandonment. When I would go to stores I was glued to my parents, I would never leave their side. I'm 15 now and through continuous hard work pushing through those thoughts and feelings and having a phone. I've gotten a lot better, as far as not wanting to stay in the car by myself. I do tend to push people away though and have trust issues. I was emotionally and mentally abused and sometimes physically by my aunt and cousin. It started when I was like four or five, up until very recently and sometimes still happens. I'm continuing to fight through it and trying to be the best version of myself and doing a lot of self-love. Especially reaching out to people when I need too and not isolating myself.

    Yeah I can relate. It just seems lately the people in my life just disappear with out warning. Especially lovers, it became a point where I could set my watch to it. It just hurts so much. I feel scared to trust people or let them for fear they'll just leave once they get what they wanted.
