Empathy Fatigue

With the best will in the world, people only have so much empathy to go around.

Whilst we are all happy to listen to the daily grumbles and gripes of our loved ones, there is a limit to how much an individual can take before any sympathy and concern starts to drain away or, worse still, morphs into irritation.

This is a condition very likely to be induced by the angstaholic. A plea to all of those feeling the need to unburden: Keep it brief & don't repeat!
