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.

We've all got our own problems that always seem bigger than everyone else's problems.
The reality is that all problems don't really matter, but the people that have the problems are what's most important.
The part i get hung up on a lot is that rarely does the person need help solving the problem as often as that person just needs someone to vent to.
