I really want to support others. I was in serious depression for most of my life and theres a lot that gets posted to on PC that I can relate to, at least feel empathy for. Maybe Im wrong but its just my natural reaction to want to cheer others up if theyre sad. I hate feeling like Im wrong to try and cheer others up even though I know its annoying and not easy to do. I dont feel like its supportive to just repeat the sad feelings others are having without offering some direction away from those feelings. I think its helpful to validate peoples feelings but I dont want to sound like Im encouraging others to go on feeling badly by simply echoing what they feel. I feel like Im doing things wrong.
