I know- what I meant was that initially, they were friendly but since I knew there was more to the story that would be unfolding to make things not-so-friendly, that's why it was weird for me.

Also, how do you NOT get emotionally overwhelmed when crisis hits someone you care about. I know it is not me that's going through this, but there are moments when it feels that way. I just carry the weight of the world on my shoulders sometimes and care so much about the people around me, that it over takes me.

Additionally, I am so busy at work lately and feel sort of "crazy" this week.

Help! Oh, and please reassure me (anyone!) that despite my anxiety, I can someday be a good mother. This is one of my biggest fears.
