to make a long story short ,
i want validation from everyone & i get jealous extremely easily & i’m not good at confronting people i’m close with & i do stuff i regret when i’m mad or feel rejected
how do you validate yourself instead of waiting for others? how do i basically… love myself? or do you have any tips?
I have the same problem.
Find something ( a hobby, a sport, etc) you are good at and where you can see that you’re good at it. You won’t need others to validate you because you’ll be able to see that talent by yourself. Maybe something that will help you with controling your emotions/ jealousy/ impulses?
Or just write your friends a message if you don’t like to confront them directly about needing more validation. 
I stopped caring about other peopls opinion a long time ago. I dont need validation. if you need that it means you dont validate yourself.
Well to give what I think, do what you think is best for you, I’ve learned it’s not worth it to base what you do or what you think off of other people. Do what you think you should do
Also this should definitely not be in art resources…
it’s in gen chat
Lol, I was looking at something else 
don’t mind me
I’m also like you. Regretting something I’ve done through anger. People really gave me bad and negative thoughts about myself . But I realised that they’re not the ones who are going to be affected but I am. So I didn’t care about what people would say. That changed me.
At least someone is awake.
Truth be told we only have ourselves 
We don’t really know who will stay in our life because life is unpredictable:heart:

P.S. I also like would to suggest you to watch a story about J.K Rowling aka The person who created Harry Potter:heart:
I personally care too much about how others find me.
