Here’s a post about the loneliness of growing up in an unstable household.
Living in instability can cause anxiety. But we often forget it can often make you feel extremely lonely.
And loneliness itself, is a state where your social needs are lower than what you expect or desire.


1. Believing there’s something unloveable about you.

2. Daydreaming of scenarios of people caring about you.

3. Never feeling like your own needs mattered to anyone.

4. Being jealous of other people’s home/family life.

5. Seeking attention from peers & romantic interests.

6. Lying about yourself to seem cooler/attractive.

7. Fantasizing that someone would save you from it all.

8. Oversharing with people you barely know in hopes that they care.
