I am one of those who hardly ever, IF ever, was praised. I never knew if anything I did was good enough or right. Now, as an adult, I still doubt if things I am doing are right or good enough. For example, any post I reply to, many decisions I make, these kinds of things create stress from wondering if I am doing or saying the right thing. Perhaps this lack of praise as a child has led to some of my self-doubt as an adult. I find, at times, I will do or say things just to find out how people feel, looking for approval I might not have gotten before.
