You should also treat a severe sprain with rest, ice, compression, and elevation. However, while a less serious sprain can heal within 2 to 4 weeks or less, a severe sprain can take months to heal. Keep weight off of your foot and stick with RICE treatment throughout the healing process. A severe sprain involves significant ligament damage. In order to heal, your foot needs to be immobilized as much as possible. Your doctor will provide you with an immobilization cast or boot and let you know how long to wear it. The most serious sprains may require surgery. If you have severe ligament damage, your primary doctor will likely refer you to a podiatrist, or foot specialist. After surgical reconstruction, you’ll have to wear a boot for 4 to 8 weeks. Depending on your injury’s severity, you’ll start physical therapy 4 to 8 weeks after surgery. It could take anywhere from 16 weeks to 12 months to fully recover.

Most of the time, feelings of neediness or dependence are rooted in fear. Think about how you would feel if the person you’re dependent on left. Ask yourself what in particular scares you about that scenario. For instance, if you’re emotionally dependent on the person you’re dating, you might have an underlying fear of feeling unlovable. Find a time when you won’t be interrupted, and sit quietly with yourself for a while. Notice where your mind goes and what kind of urges you experience. You may find some thought patterns or habits you weren’t previously aware of. Don’t distract yourself by checking your phone or tidying your room when you do this exercise. Devote all your attention to introspection, even if it’s uncomfortable. Think about who you really are when you’re not trying to please anybody else. Identify your core values, the things you want to achieve, and your idiosyncrasies. Work on building a sense of self that doesn’t depend on external validation. If you don’t have a strong sense of identity, step out of your comfort zone and explore some new things by yourself. See which activities, people, and ideas resonate with you. If you feel locked in a cycle of emotional dependency and can’t manage to break out on your own, don’t be afraid to seek help. Talk to a trusted friend or relative, or get help from a counselor or therapist.
