they dont' want help. they just want to complain. and they will actively hate you if you try to help them.

how do I know? because I've been there a million times. and life is a lot better when you give up trying to help people who are only interested in being miserable.

the person you should be helping is yourself. invest in yourself, not throwing yoru time and energy away on people who will never give that time and energy back to you. it will leave you miserable and depressed and drained.
