it's hard to continually give of yourself all of the time. Even without having met you i have no doubt that you are a wonderful woman/mother/friend and all the other hats you wear

From my own personal experience there always come a time where self preservation kicks in and you (generic) realise that you can't be everything to everyone. eventually, that auto pilot you've been running on switches off and all those emotions that have been simmering under the surface, boil over and you "crash", so to speak. you realise that you've lost sight of who *you* are and what you need because you've been so engrossed being there for everyone else
