I Care Too Much, That Is How I Get Hurt

I care so much about others, I know that for a fact. It's just so hard sometimes to care about everyone. When I go on EP and look at people's profiles and their experiences, I want to find out more about their personality and likes and dislikes, but most of the time I see people who are struggling with life and hope and other things. It just makes me sad that I can't help them, and even if I could I would have no idea how.

So many of the people have messaged me have had serious issues with self-harm, anxiety disorders, depression... There's so many people who don't feel loved, and I want to help them with that. I can't though. How can an insignificant 15-year-old help the many people who suffer like this? I can't make every girl my girlfriend or be every guy's bro or anything like that. There's only so much love to go around, and I hate it. I just want to help...

It's this emotional torture that I put myself through for no reason. I know there's nothing I could do, and I know I can help at least one or two people, and I know that I shouldn't stress myself like this... but I do it anyway. I can't just turn it off... Why can't I turn it off?
