IF IT’S NOT YOURS DON’T OWN IT

It can be very difficult when a close friend is experiencing a difficult experience.  We all have our moments.  It is always reassuring knowing that there are those individuals that are always there to lend a hand when we are in need. 

Life at times can seem unfair and it is easy to allow ourselves to be swept away by circumstances that enter our lives.  There are times when answers seem to be unavailable and relief seems very distant.

If you are assisting someone emotionally through some life altering experiences, remember not to allow yourself to get caught up in their emotions.  You cannot be of aid when you take on the emotion of their situation and make it your own. 

There are those that are so psychically involved that they make other people’s issues their own, often without knowing it.  They experience depression but do not understanding why.  You can reach out to offer your help, your emotional support and to provide an ear for venting, but do not get caught up in other’s problems and take on the emotional attachment.

Allowing others to unload is probably the greatest assistance you can offer.  Often when we are experiencing stressful situations in life expressing their frustrations is an important release.  It is often difficult to open up and be honest when faced with such situations. 

A true friend will neither judge nor take sides.  Regrettably, it is their road to walk and although we feel great compassion and honestly wish to help, change and decisions are theirs to make.  Some people get so caught up in the moment that they truly are not looking for help or advice.  They are just looking for a means of releasing and unwinding.   

Be their friend in need, but do not harbour their anxiety.  Love them by showing them you care, but leave the emotion behind when you have done your part.
