Hi Sarah

Yes, I know what you mean. I always wonder why I think my feelings are so important. Why do I contemplate my navel - Why can't I worry about bigger problems, global problems, instead of on my own self-esteem and what people think of me - who gives a fig anyway? And how shallow it is to concentrate on my own feelings to that extent. I am very guilty of that. But of course it is a mental condition which we cannot help and can only do our best to control.

As Myzen so rightly said, we see other people being really offhand or even rude and no-one thinks any the worse of them, whilst we do our best to be liked by everyone. Mad, isn't it?

Hope this helps, we're all in it together for one reason or another.
