As the person who always gets to be, "The Rock", sometimes I feel like telling people, "I'm not equipped to help you. You need a professional counselor." but I fear that may put them over the edge. I'm glad they know they can rely on me, but it's emotionally draining being vested in everyone else's problems all the time, and having to back burner my own, of which luckily there are not that many.

Well he let's me know his limits and I try not to turn him into "the rock." But it helps because he's in the military as well so we get the particular struggles that comes with the job. I've spent enough time at the VA to get the major problems fix lol (thankfully).
