This may get removed, I don't know.

I get comfort from being here, but I bleed for everybody's pain.

Just a vent, I guess.

why would this get removed? PC is a great place to be, lots of support and supportive people, but also a lot of people struggling. it is hard not to have empathy for others pain, especially when you can identify with it. I am on here answering threads everyday and some days I just have to step back and take a break cause it is too much. I don't know what to say anymore. I don't feel like I can do enough. I feel helpless. but I am just here to listen and offer support and encouragement. I cant fix it. it is ok to vent. that is what pc is for. take care.

((hugz)) Take enough time 'off' and have some 'life' iRL as well... Go for a walk, talk to people in RL, hug someone...
I find it hard to be on PC too much (after initial enthusiasm ) too!
It's really hard to wish to help everyone, and you can't, cause you're just one person... It's good that there are many helpful people online and that others can help if one can't... At least that is what I tell myself and it helps somehow
Thanks for this!

I'm new here so it's a bit overwhelming. I'm not alone! But, I'm not alone! So I get what you mean, I think.

Sometimes I get overwhelmed by the tragedy of so many people struggling, especially when so many are still so young. Sometimes I have to limit myself to the check in thread and pm's. Even then I get really anxious when people stop posting even though I know that their priority must always be what works for them.
Thanks for this!

I agree with everyone else. I'm the same way.
