Things you can do if you think you are too emotionally needy or clingy in a relationship:
1. Understand your own needs. What is it that you are seeking? What is missing? 2. Where is the unmet need coming from? If you had to go back in time where do you see yourself experiencing the same emotions? 3. Has there ever been a breach of trust? What will help you recover from it?
4. Try not to pressurize your partner and ask instead if they can meet your expectations. 5. Try doing perspective thinking rather than overthinking. Take one thought or situation and have perspectives of it
