 Have you known some people who are always being recognized? Not that they are popular but they are noticeable. They always want to be on the spotlight. They seem to love the limelight to get recognition they want but what are the things that are noticeable to them? Do you know that there’s a reason behind this for they might have an addiction to attention? Of course, most of us want to be noticed by others but not to some extent.
People who are attention addicts are usually those that have not received any care from their family and outside when they are still a child. Every one of us needs a dose of care mainly from our parents. This is for our emotional growth. In case that you don’t know, whether we like it or not, the experiences that we get and received from others take part in our personality.

This explains why some individuals are attention addicts to which can be related to some of us. As a child, I was never given full notice by others. I feel like I am nonexistent. I was just the plain Jane whom everybody doesn’t seem to notice. Others used to call me nerd when I was in college because of my eyeglasses that adds more to my shyness but I’m not one of those attention addicts who crave for an extra care.
It cause me to have low self-esteem and I have a hard time having new friends in the class but my long association to my classmates, let me discover that there are people whom I can relate with. Before graduation, I was able to form my own circle of friends.
I was not the Miss Popular in school but I was one of the top in class to which I could be proud of. This part of me served as my backbone to face life in a more positive way that separated me to be one of those attention addicts.
My experiences lead me to be the one that I am today. I only have with me my own self, embracing my nakedness. I remember one point in my life that I went through a period of weakness but there are help available. Since I was shy, I learned to be on my own.
Instead of asking help from others, I independently gathered some facts to help myself overcome inner conflicts that I’m constantly sharing with you. Currently, I’m receiving some recognition from my clients that I have helped to which some are also attention addicts.
