We all have our limits, so I believe what you're saying is definitely true.

But I don't think the proper reaction to that is to take it out on the people suffering (which is what I'm seeing happening a lot) but in fact to set boundaries both for yourself and other people. Scroll past depression posts of people you don't know, and if it's someone you do know then make sure you're clear about not being their therapist. Don't ever let yourself get to that point where you just don't care.

Since I've had a lot of issues since a young age I never wanted people to feel as badly as I have, but as I grew older I really started to understand that boundaries are important because you have to take care of yourself before you can really help other people. It's made it a lot easier to be sympathetic to people's problems.

That all makes sense. I guess it's pretty much a matter of balancing between being there to support people but remembering that it's not your job to fix all of their problems.
