BedDweller 1 Posted November 26, 2020 Who else on here takes other peoples' problems and worries about them as if they're your own issues? For example, a family member injures themselves and you worry that it's something serious, when in reality it isn't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren_Green20 0 Posted March 9, 2021 When you say people's problems, that is not healthy I believe. Family problems, most definitely worry you. I don't mean to sound pessimist but in my 37 years of life, I have realized that investing too much time in their problems is not okay. They expect you to be emotionally available for them when you have a life of your own and when you are not available they whine and say oh how I have been there for you and you can't do the bare minimum by listening to my problems. So, do not overhelp and worry about other peoples problems because you are kindhearted. Help as much as you can and let go of their troubles. It has come to bite me countless times when I made others peoples issues my own and worsened my anxiety. Hope this helped 🙂 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
