Neediness, those in need will ever be in need if they do not change.
The best way to find oneself, take out the stress and most needs is to hang out with oneself. It works fine for me.
Life is not about what others think about you, but how you think about/see yourself.

Btw I have been molested, abused, manipulated for many years (already as a baby) but the things I never suffered from are a lack of self esteem and neediness.
