It's weird. I am sure everyone else has their own battles and their own inner turmoil, I guess people deal with it in different ways. Some are very insular, some are very extrovert, some turn to drink or drugs etc etc.
Sometimes I use alcohol to help me understand things as it does give me greater clarity. Problem is sometimes I use it as a means of escape and as alcohol tends to heighten my own sense of emotion, using it as an escape route is never a good thing.
I agree with you about sharing problems but then I feel like a burden. I know real friends are there to help you through the difficult parts in life and I would always help a friend in need but sometimes you think you just piss off those you love by being constantly morose or contemplative.
The problem with me often goes down to too much time to think. From that point of view, cuddling, exercise etc are good ways forward.
Friendships are an important cornerstone in life and one I greatly treasure. I hope you consider me a good friend :)
