I want to, and try to, help everyone and give something to make them all feel better. It took a friend to help me, as I considered doing something to help someone which was only going to hurt me. She reminded me that it is good to help people and good to feel driven to do so, but there are times when you have to help yourself for a bit, to remind yourself why you do these things in the first place. If you want to keep helping people and want to believe it it being the right thing again take a short break and do a few things for yourself, remember that feeling of being the one helped to give you the motivation to keep going.
