- before i stopped going to my therapist. he told me. i need to stop trying to solve other peoples problems all the time and just focus on myself. ever since he told me that on our last session. i always thought that it was pretty selfish and i would never listen to that one piece of advice. but now that i really look into it. im seeing that he was pretty much right. just getting involved with other peoples problems causes some of the weight to shift onto your shoulders. and who really wants other peoples problems on their shoulders. dont we already have enough problems to deal with on our own.
- but then again. thats the problem with the people of america. not willing to help other out. and take others problems into their own hands and try to help. so how can we know what the right thing to do is. i really dont know. all i know how to do is to dream and wish for these things to happen. i cant have much of an affect on how someone makes it through life. should i take others problems into my own hands and lend a helping hand risking failure or watch them struggle with it.
- it really confuses me. my close friend is going through some troubled times right now. finding herself. and i wish i could help her through this time because i know how hard it is. i went through this stage all last year and am still kinda going through it. im glad she isnt being the idiot i was when i was going through this. i want to help her. i really do. but i dont know how. i act like i know what to do. but i really dont. im just not sure. but now im beginning to back off. i dont want to become like a therapist. im just now realising how much my therapist was actually helping me. i wish i could reach him now and get all of this stuff off my chest. im just really lost. confused. i dont know whats going on. i dont know. im not sure of anything now. i was. but. now im really doubting myself and everything i had believed in.
