New outlook on this so called life.

I am at a complete loss for losings my parents too close together.I thought I gave pretty good advice to people on here in the past. Most were glad to hear it. Now things have changed, I will rarely check this site is at all. The friends i have counted on have turned their backs on. My mistake, I should have known better. In the real world in resigning Monday. I don't trust anybody any more and have no empathy. If I see someone fall out in front of me dying I will stand there and watch them die of just walk off. I no longer care. 🖤

You are emotionally burnt out by the sounds of things. You need to take some time to take care of you. You are constantly taking care of people who have a high level of support needs and that can absolutely drain you.

You keep giving and giving but you get nothing back so after a while you kind of build an invisible wall of protection around yourself and start caring on autopilot whilst getting more and more tired and it becomes a vicious circle.

Add that with your own personal grief and it's really not surprising you're struggling. Maybe resigning might be a bit final, it's a big decision to make when you're grieving and your head is not in the right place to be objective. Can you take time off instead?

As for SW. You can put your account on hiatus and just take a break if you need to. We don't know each other very well but it would be a shame not to see you around. Xx
