Hey, this sounds a bit weird… but sometimes I really wish I could hug a stranger.
Not for romance or anything, just one honest human moment that feels warm and safe.
Life gets lonely sometimes, and a simple hug can feel like medicine.
Being born with facial issues made me feel like I’m always less than others, like I don’t fully deserve to enjoy life or do normal activities without being judged. Sometimes I stop myself before even trying, because I already feel different. It’s exhausting fighting your own mind every day while pretending you’re okay.
I’m 19 and I think I have daddy issues.
I get emotionally attached to older men who speak gently to me and show me kindness or care. Sometimes even small attention affects me deeply. I don’t know if I’m just looking for comfort, protection, or something I missed growing up.
How do I stop getting attached so easily and deal with this in a healthy way?
I’ve been realizing something about myself lately… I think I have what people call “daddy issues.” I never really felt what it’s like to have a father figure, and maybe that left a space I don’t fully understand.
I’ve noticed I get emotionally attached to older people—not in a weird or inappropriate way—but in a way that feels like I’m searching for something I missed. When someone shows me a little care, kindness, or guidance, it honestly means more to me than it probably should. It feels warm, safe… almost unfamiliar, but comforting.
I don’t fully know how to explain it, but I’m trying to understand myself better.

I have to prepare a short presentation (only 7 minutes) about mental health awareness, and honestly I’m a bit confused. I don’t know which topics are the most important to include, or how to start the presentation in a strong way.
Should I focus on definitions, causes, personal impact, or solutions? And how do you structure something meaningful in such a short time?
If anyone has tips, examples, or even a simple outline, I’d really appreciate it!
How did you get friends here in Snapchat?
And do you all know each other or they are just online friends?
