Oh, and uh...this is something I'm working on for myself, too. And I really need to work on it more, too.

But if you're the person someone seeks for help...

...Please don't pour your own bad experiences on them. Take the time to listen to them, even if you may think that your experiences are worse. Because, I think, you ranting will make them feel worse and irrelevant, kind of like "Get over it, I've had worse, and you should feel good that you didn't have my problems", you know?

It's a really common mishap, because we as humans are much more comfortable talking about ourselves than others. The thing is, there's a degree of being able to be related to and just completely deeming someone else's issues as irrelevant.

Just a thought :), and a psychological fact of sorts, I suppose. This is something I'm often a hypocrite over xD, but I think I do understand the concept, and I'm trying to apply it.
