Diagnosing in the psychological/psychiatric realm is a lot less professional than... A lot of people assume... And I've just gotten used to it. But it is also... I've acquired several traumas FROM being evaluated and... stuff... So it is... A trigger area now... IE, I want to talk, say more, but none of it is conducive to the topic of your post here, so...

And yeah, once helping others becomes a chore, a burden... Then it is no longer helpful nor joyfully given. As I tell young friends all the time, "learn your limits, what wil make you feel best, and what will cost you too much personally, emotionally. Never forget you cannot help others if you neglect or harm yourself."

And... venting and getting acknowledged is worth its weight in gold, IMO >_>
