I don't. Others are secondary to my interest. Since I was diagnosed, I have watched all those who were dear to me leave. The most recent was my daughter. My daughter did not intend to hurt me, she was looking to relieve the suffering of a migraine. She made an unfortunate choice. But she was looking after her own interest. Wanting to relieve pain trumped all other considerations.

I found out late, that everyone eventually acts in their own self interest. My family all took care of themselves. In fact they were directed to, regarding me, by mental health professionals. So, for being saddled with an illness I was exiled.

You name the social entity, they all are concerned with their own survival and well being. Why should I be different? I will not hurt anyone if I can help it, but no one influences my actions unless I choose. No one can feel my pain nor play the hand I was dealt for me

I gladly extend my had to anyone in need. If it comes down to you or me, well, it sucks to be you.
