I am going to try more to do as Trippin suggested and view their unhelpful attempts at helping as just proof they care enough to try. But yes I find it usually makes it worse to talk to someone who just doesn't get it. I feel myself having to explain and defend and educate and I don't want to do that. I just want to be heard or understood or something.
