I feel really silly but when it comes to one to one chat i always feel like my problem isn't huge enough? :lol:
even when it comes to people or family i suppress my troubles because i feel like college, or any of my other problems aren't like major and people could be doing more important stuff oops :lol:

    Hi Lane,

    I just wanted to say that it is normal to wonder if you are bothering people with your problems, a lot of people feel this way. Something I like to remember is that there is always going to be someone who is "worse off" than you but that doesn't mean that your problems are not worth talking about. You would never tell someone you don't want to hear their good news because someone else has it better, so the same should apply to problems. If it is bothering you then it is important. Your friends and family care about you and would want to be there for you, I'm sure.

    Take care
    The sun will rise and we will try again

    Hi Lane

    I think if it's even a problem for you that is a big issue. Looking back on things I thought were massive problems, i think aren't so big now. But was at the time and doesn't really matter how big or small it is. If it's a problem for you than it matters . So dont feel bad about it. If that makes sense :)
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
