2. Don't be so hard on yourself. You have been/are going through a lot.

It seems like it would be so much easier to do the suffering yourself, as watching others go through their personal hell is painful, too.

I hope your therapist can give you enough support to pull yourself up by the bootstraps and give you the strength to help those who need you.

Good luck! We're here if you need to bend an ear.
