Is it normal that i'm addicted to my aunts hugs?

I'm addicted to my aunts hugs. She hugs me every night in bed before I go to sleep for about an hour and a half. I have anxiety and depression, trust issues and alot of other stupid problems, her hugs make me feel so safe, secure and loved. They make me feel great, the only reason I wake up is because I know I'm going to get a big, warm, loving embrace before I sleep. I just feel the warmth of her body against mine and rest on her chest, hearing her heart beat, feeling her stomach move from breathing. It's given us an amazing bond too, I live far away from my mother and I think I'm starting to think of her as my mum. I appreciate her, I wrote her a lovely letter telling her how much I love her, she was really pleased. She said I can call her mum. Am I getting to attached to her?

    • I've tried but they aren't that friendly towards me, they always call me lazy/slow and egoistic.

      Funny because I suffered a head trauma when I was 6 years old which has rendered me incapable of doing mental tasks as fast as a normal person would.

      "I'm not that much slower then the average person and there is nothing wrong with my intelligence"
      (The doctor told me so today)

      And why am I being egoistic you might ask?
      Well because if nobody cares for me then I will have to care for myself and by doing so I think about myself before others.
      (I help out if my help is needed but if it isn't then I won't)

      I was hateful when I was young but for the last 3-4 years I've cared allot about people, sadly the people I care about wouldn't really notice if I were to disappear.

      My doctor told me today that I might have ADHD and that I will probably die young because of my old head injury.

      I'm not sure how to take it.....
      He basically told me that I have no future, how am I supposed to take that?

  • I think it's good that you are so close, I wish I were that close with my aunts since my mother died 3 years ago and I really miss her :(
    Stay close to her buddy :)

    That's wonderful that you guys have that bond. It's good to know their are other families out there that have strong support for one another.
