Dear editor,
I’m the peacemaker among my friends, the introverted listener. But lately I find myself dealing with my friends and their problems more than ever. It seems like I’m walking around with the weight of the world on my shoulders— literally, and it’s making me dive headfirst into depression. Don’ t get me wrong, I like being trusted, but sometimes I know I’m just being used, and all I need to do is listen. But I also feel helpless towards many of the situations. On top of trying to help friends of mine, I’ve got my own problems too! It’s insane. What should I do?
Yours,
April
