The empathy problem.
This week has been rough.
Who do you go to talk to when the person you chose to call mom for 20 years dies?
Then a person on another server posted about how awful it was to respond to someone's need to talk.
What are they supposed to do? Sit and nod their heads, pretending they don't have any experience with that problem?
Leave the person alone in their suffering?
I want someone to share their stories! To share the connection! To help me not feel alone!
