Why do I feel that I am rejected or neglected by people?

Sometimes a sense of rejection or neglect comes from childhood relationships, or from low self-esteem. No matter how much love people show you, you have to be willing to trust them and accept it for it to be beneficial. If you are struggling with self-esteem try positive self talk and calming mantras like "This is a bad day, not a bad life", "I am stronger than these feelings", "I am worthy of love, even if I make mistakes" Posting positive self-loving notes around your apartment or bedroom can help

Maybe you just want their attention and that's the reason, sometime other people have their problems and might just not want to talk .

This usually happens from past experiences with regards to self esteem. It is something that you aren't ware that can last for a long period of time. Due to past experiences it seems that you have are constantly having that mind set.

Feelings of rejection and neglect come from insecurities within oneself. The best way to overcome these feelings are by learning to live yourself and stop looking for appreciation outside.

First, you have to analyze you. Are you a positive or negative person? Are your conversations are good? and not uncomfortable?

I feel this happens sometimes because I do not stand up and insist on being seen, being an important presence. I let things happen around me.

I feel that I am rejected or neglected by people because of the way I look. I have never been the most pretty girl, or the most popular. But its what's on the inside that counts. I am very understanding and caring if you give me the chance.

I feel rejected or neglected by people when I have unrealistic expectations from them and when they fail to deliver, I imagine it's a form of rejection.

That must be very stressful, but you are definitely not alone in feeling this way. Sometimes, I feel as if no one accepts me for the way I am and no one wants to spend time with me (this isn't necessarily true since I do have friends that care, but my head likes to turn against itself sometimes and I take the slightest rejection as a sign that I am not "worthy" enough). I think it's important that, no matter what other people may really think of you, you have to love yourself first. You have to believe that you are capable of being loved, and that you are fun/interesting to be around first before you seek acceptance from others.

Ouch! That sounds like a painful feeling. Has something happened recently that's led to how you're feeling?
