Abandonment Issues Quiz

A traumatic childhood or a people-pleasing attitude can often lead to abandonment issues. This translates into living under constant fear of being left out and incessantly craving people’s love and attention. People suffering from abandonment syndrome have low self-worth and struggle with prioritizing themselves over others. They constantly feel a void within themselves, leading them to seek validation from others. So, do you suffer from abandonment syndrome?  If you think you do, take our Abandonment Issues quiz now.
