Hi,

i don't know much about this disorder, but I think it is caused through a need of attention.

Why do you feel that you are lacking attention?? Do you think that maybe you have low self esteem at the moment, and when you recieve attention you feel better about yourself maybe?? If you have got low self esteem you need to try and think of ways which might help you feel better about yourself - you could maybe find some new hobbies etc.

I think you would benefit from speaking to a counsellor, it will be a good network of support for you.

Take care.
