Attention seekers usualy have a self esteem problem, they feel that people won't come and see them because they want to, they have to have a reason to.Rebecca, you need to work on your self esteem, going to a counseller might help as you work through the reasons you attention seek. Go to your GP and they should know of local youth centres with counselling services you could access.Don't panic, seek help, you'll be fine. I got over it, you will too.

 Hi Rebecca,
Well you have realised that you have a problem. That is good. Now you need to make a concerted effoert to put a stop to it.
When you seek all this attention people will eventually "get wise" to it and you could be labeled a liar as well as craving attention. Now that would not be nice, would it? There has got to be a reason behind this. Are you worried about something or has something happened to you? Please tell your mum. She can help you.
Try your best to stop seeking attention when you feel the urge to. Fill your time by helping someone else, such as give your mum a hand doing household things or visit an elderly relative or neighbour who cant get out as much as they once did and needs some help. You will not be seeking attention, but turning your attention on another person. You will also feel good for having helped someone who needed you.
I hope this helps you.
Take care,
Skye
