It hurts how much mistakes I’ve made in the past seeking validation from these dumb boys. And after all the things he’s done wrong to me, I hate how much I still want him in my life. It’s been 8 years and not even once he sent me a birthday card, asked how I was doing or anything. He doesn’t even care.

I have trust issues, and I've never taken care of myself because I've always been too busy fixing other people's problems, etc. PARENTS: Don't lean on your children for emotional support, don't expect perfection from them, and make your children feel special not based on what they've accomplished, but for who they are...

This gives me even more of a reason not to date in high school. A break-up can lower self esteem, meaning mine will degrade to about -923, which I'm assuming isn't good for me.

You need experience tho. Sooner or later you ll experience a break up anyway. Imagine being in college, or later in life, not knowing how to deal with a break up. The person you ve been with probably has been through a lot of break ups, so he wont seem that affected after the break up, but for you it will be way harder. Yeah, it brings your self esteem down at that moment, but later you ll become stronger and more mature because of that.

Tara O' Connell I don’t know know exactly how to help, but I can say that hopefully she does have a male in her life who can be a father figure/positive male role model to her, wether that be a grandfather, uncle, friend, boyfriend, etc. When I was younger, my mom had a boyfriend who was my father figure. He showed me how I should be treated by a man and he taught me many things that my father never had an interest in taking his time to teach me. He gave me unconditional love and affection and spent time with me as much as he could and I can tell you that was an amazing time for me those years I got to have him. I will always keep those memories close to my heart and I will always remember the things he’s taught me and how he treated me. Unlike myself, I hope your daughter can have a man/men like that throughout her whole life. Unfortunately for me, I was abandoned yet again...but adults break up and that’s life. Good luck to you and your daughter.

identifying that is progress on it's own though, you'd be surprised how many people go through life pretending things are perfect when they aren't. the first step is always admitting your reality, the ability to look in the mirror as honestly as you can without ego and all shish, to understand your insufficiencies, is the first step to growing and overcoming those odds and becoming the person you deep-down know you're meant to be. and finding contentment in the things you can't control. we dont get to pick our parents, but we can certainly choose the way we react to things/these circumstances/etc. you're smart!

@@nu-agegamer3548 yes. It’s sad to hear how low she thinks of herself. Someone also has to teach her what’s right and wrong in a relationship when she’s ready for one. Controlling behaviour and major jealousy are abusive qualities. I’m not dissing her, I’m just saying she is confused partly due to her self-esteem issues and I think the other part of the problem there is that because her father isn’t in the picture and didn’t make her feel good about herself, she also didn’t have an example of a healthy and good relationship set to her by her parents in order to prepare her for one.

I really feel sorry for her. She seems like such a sweet young girl.

Bless her heart. I love how Dr. Phil treated her.

[@violetjohnson686]

I don’t feel so alone now... I know it’s because of family issues that I seem to act that way. I feel bad when I do but it puts me in a panic and ptsd (caused by family trauma) starts up right away. I feel really bad for her but she isn’t alone. 💕

Just remember your past doesn't define your future. It may not be your fault, but you need to hold yourself accountable for your actions moving forward. Once you enter dating and you become destructive, insecure, and unwilling to open up, that would be your fault. Healing takes responsibility and effort. It takes a long time, maybe even a lifetime, to heal but it is worth it when you see yourself improving. I hope things work out for you!

[@jujuiraqbaby]

For real for real. That’s crazy n good to know i’m not alone either i’m glad they got a video like this out to inform people on y they might have problems

[@mocha8375]

damn im 25 and married and I still learned something from this, thanks dr Phil

[@chloezafonte3217]

I feel for this girl. My father was extremely abusive and I've hopped from bad relationship to bad relationship in my life and it's overall mentally damaging. I hope she gets the help she needs.

[@tiffanymorgan6562]

How about focusing your time and energy on getting the help YOU need?

[@lb8141]

I love how Dr. Phil handled her. So kind.

[@seximonki1989]

I love how Dr Phil knows how to connect and talk to his guests. His approach is always catered to the person and I especially enjoy it in this clip

[@elenabethany7743]

Ahh I remember when dating was everything for me in highschool. I'm almost 20 now. So over it lol. Would rather be alone . It's okay hun, you'll find yourself soon. And when you do it's the best feeling ever to know that you don't need a boyfriend/girlfriend for happiness. PS my name is Elena too ❤️

[@chloecarpenter1404]

Not gonna lie, I would hate the 5 things about myself question, and I haven’t got an issue with self-esteem

Imagine caring more about someone else and their opinions than yourself
