Desiree Barnes’s Reviews > Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves—and How to Find Our Way Back > Status Update

I resonate with different aspects of each story that has been introduced so far. Often feeling like I don't have a choice other than to do what I do. I am a people pleaser and feel empty if I don't feel needed even when I don't want to feel that way. I feel guilt, discomfort, and shame often like what is being described. They say they don't know where their personality starts and the fawning ends, I understand that.
