Do I care too much?
It’s a good thing to care. Loving others enough to feel for them and to want to help them is something that makes people special and admirable.
However some of us are programmed to care too much. Sometimes our ability to care can lead to us getting hurt.
If you find yourself in a situation that might be dangerous to you physically or mentally ask yourself would you be better off standing back? Are you giving too much of yourself or your time to this person or situation? Sometimes other people need to make a mistake in order to learn.
Try to take it easy on yourself, to let go, to detach. It doesn’t mean you love anyone any less. There’s no shame in it, there’s no shame in taking care of yourself.
