Speak a little softer, so that I can hear you.

(silvermousepad and artartart and) I are attempting to solve a minor crisis which I have inflicted upon myself.

I love people. I love caring for them. I love making them happy, or at least better.
I believe I was put here for the purpose of caring for others, more than I care for myself.
But sometimes I can't handle it.
Sometimes i can't handle anything.
Sometimes I can't even leave my room.
So I decided, one day, to get some help.
I decided, that day, to get myself a counselor.
One reason why I never did that before was that I was afraid of becoming self-involved and forgetting my purpose.
And now, I am very afraid that this is happening.
And when I am self-involved, I hate myself, because I know that isn't the way I am supposed to be.
And if being happy means being miserable, what can I do?

Toby kenobi has provided a logical solution, which shall be attempted post-thanksgiving break.
Carrot Ears is providing support and reassurance, mainly.
I have some darned good people on my side.
