> i have seen you care for so many people on this board. i have often wanted to comment on how much empathy you have. it's incredible. anyone that can feel the pain of others so deeply and offer support from the heart is gifted. don't cut yourself short. you may not hear it from others, but trust me, you are wonderful and what you do does not go unnoticed or unappreciated.
I agree.Hi Amy.
We each learn to identify which stressors are bad for us, and of these, which are avoidable and worth avoiding. I'm glad you are choosing at this time to focus on yourself so that you can recover from the stresses you encountered. Stress can very much precipitate or exacerbate depression. It is important to learn how to manage.
You give so much. You are liked, and are a very welcomed personality on the PB boards.
What is it that has you thinking that no one here cares for you? Perhaps you haven't until now offered the opportunity to be cared for. You have spent all of your time caring for others! There will always be plenty of support here for you.
Take care of yourself. You'll be alright.
