So the problem remains.

There do seem to be people here that are relatively mentally and healthy and are very helpful to folks in bad situations like myself. I cannot fault anyone for not coming to my aid quite enough when I do not feel that I am helpful at all to anyone here. I have nothing left to give anymore. Plus everything has become so PC, that you have to really be careful what you say to who. I'm sorry that I cannot help anyone here, it is in my nature to help but I guess I am all shot out, done.

Most posts suggest to see a therapist. I agree that therapy would be a great idea for me and others, it is just NOT feasible for me right now. Plus I feel all "over therapized", that is not a word but you get my meaning. After 15 or so years of therapy, it all seems repetitious. When you get this cynical and jaded, I am not sure that you can be helped.

The moral of the story is that I just want to figure out how I can best help myself on this site by making my posts more amenable and easy to answer. A lot of life's questions do not have easy answers, I do get that. Any thoughts?
I agree with that..some people think that it is easy to 86 a paranoid schizophrnic boyfriend like mine for example like I need to respect his boundaries when he is in full blown delusions and hallucinations...right...I don't think that they should be giving advice or trying to help if they don't the details of stuff like that...they are NOT professionals and seem to think that they know better than the psychiatrists and counselors we have seen so you need to be careful about accepting advice from just anyone...just my thoughts..
