I Have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

No one gives a damn about anyone.
Everyone, people you know, agencies, friends, family.
Everyone always says:
I'm here for you.
Just reach out.
I'm here to listen.
Etc....
Then they completly ignore, and avoid you at all cost when you do reach out.
The only reason they do end up helping/being there for / with anything
Is because...

1. They are getting paied to do so

2. They are getting or wanting to get something out of the situation.

3. They have a audience, that they are trying to look good for.

4. They need to check off their "good deed" for the day/week/month/year.

5. They need something to disscuss, and brag about to theur social circle.

6. They need to do something, so they can post it all over social media. To get patted on the back. The "Look what I did Syndrome"

I dare you to find an example of any sane individual, including you, doing something that doesn't fit in any of the 6 things you said. :))
Perhaps you should focus less on motivation and accept the ones that want to help in spite of what they might get out of it. It's wiser to eat half a cookie while your friend eats 2, than to say no cookie for anyone because it's not fairly shared.
