Gosh, I really don't have an answer to that. It doesn't seem likely because for one thing, your old counselors would know you're not mentally challenged but they're still showing the caring side. Looking at it now, I think it's probably more that people just like you as a person and want to be supportive and helpful, etc. But, as you say, it feels a bit over the top.

I have no other idea's about it, friend.
