Thanks, no need to be sorry. And thanks for sharing your experiences. I will answer shortly because I don't feel so good right now...Just one thing I'd like to mention, and that is that I do think that it is not only valid to feel however we feel but it's also natural to go through some tougher phases in life. That doesn't mean one should suffer but it's normal to be down on the floor and be unable to get up for a while. While there are lots of good advices and techniques, it doesn't mean that the person can't do them or doesn't know how to do them or has been doing them wrongly (as a lot of us feel when we are depressed and others come and tell us what we should do)
I do believe there is a time for everything. And. yes, techniques are good to be accessible but sometimes a person is not in a place to do them.
And then what I see is two people talking to each other but they are like in parallel universes/on different frequencies. And maybe that's okay too, if we accept that it is normal.
Again, hope I wasn't too aggressive in this reply, was not my intention at all.
Just needed to write this out and thank you for giving me the opportunity

@ArcheM Sorry, I didn't want to deviate your thread
