It's hard for me to entirely get past the belief that I can fix my friends' problems, if I could only think of the right answer--even when I know better, because the problem is outside my scope (e.g., most medical things) or not something that one person can solve.

This despite knowing that I can't fix all of my own problems, nor can my friends fix them for me: there's a part of me that believes that not only can I offer a cup of tea and an ear, but that those will be enough.

I suppose the positive side of this is that I'm feeling enough better, physically, to have more energy to think about things other than my lungs.

I appreciate you trying. Just thinking of my own problems, which are pretty well outside my own scope as well. Thanks. *hug*
