Why Am I so Innocent?

Question

I care too much about people, too often people take advantage of me, and I feel useless, in turn I take it out on myself as if I was sick. I really don't care about anything at times, it's easier to let go and fall.

Answer 1

You sound like you could have some problems with depression.  I think you should address this issue with your doctor.

Answer 2

You are humble and modest in your ways, yet you find a way to s***w that up.

Disappointing.

Answer 3

Honest people, raised in an honest family, expect the rest of the world to be as honest as you are.  Happens to a lot of us. When someone takes advantage, that is a sign of THEIR weakness, not yours. Keep being honest, just be aware there are a lot of people out there who are not, and be careful.  It is NOT a weakness to be honest. Don't get bitter, and don't ever blame yourself.

Answer 4

i dont know see a therapist

Answer 5

i go thru the same thing at times, but seriously you need to learn(which im still learning) how to take a step back and take a selfish breather for your self... care for you...if you can't care for yourself how can you trulpy care for someone else?

Answer 6

not innocent, naive. you probably don't care too much about others, you just don't care enough about yourself so you end up in co-dependent relationships. there are books that could help you.

Answer 7

It sounds like you're a people-pleasing machine and you have allowed yourself to become exhausted. You should put yourself first and learn how to say no. It's easier said than done if this is your personality trait - but perhaps a counseling session or seeking more supportive friends would be a wise idea.

Answer 8

your problem is you care to much about other people and not yourself. its called looking out for number 1

theres nothing wrong with helping out people or friends, but you cant be friends with everyone. and dont waste effort on people who dont appreciate it.

theres a difference from being reliable and being a predictable pushover  

youll earn more respect being a leader than a follower
