I know what its like to be standing in a room full of people all they ask how you are? and all you can manage is 'ok', ..to stand their and try to explain is embarrassing, your not really sure what one thing is wrong so you cant explain it in under 200 words, your not really convinced they want that much info, and it exposes you too much.

I wish I had more friends. I tend to think too deep, be too draining. I know people care- but from their point of view they can only give if they have got it to give. There's a thread on here which asks if you didnt have mental health issues where would you be? My response was on another forum trying to sort out no doubt some other issues. All people have problems and only a few have enough emotional energy left over for someone else.

My point.....some of the best advice I got on here was try tp spread you need for human contact into as many small baskets as you can, rather than loading up just one or two (friends). Making friends is not easy...so share bit load by caring about a stranger, talk T, talk friends, talk partner, talk councilor, talk neighbors.

Idea being you will have greater support network and not do what we all tend to do and that's limit ourselves to only telling a few everything, rather than telling a few to everyone.

Have some downtime, recognize you ok but spent and share your load with others on here. We care.

Hugs
