I know the feeling, its like your there for someone and its all great and their happy and everything. But when you're upset they don't see to notice, going on and on about their problems. Ya, my life is really good compare to some people I know, but it's still bad in my eyes. It still makes me cry myself to sleep. So is it so wrong to wish that someone would turn around and ask me how I'm really feeling for once?

I remember a few months ago. I was going into this weird depression streak. I still did my best to help people out. After a while, I posted a few journals on how I felt. Some of my friends told me how stupid I was being and I should just get over it. It killed me inside. For some reason, I still kept going on with helping them. After a while, it was too much.
Then, one of my best friends ever, and the one who knows me inside and out, came in and saved me. I was so suprised by how much someone cared. I had no idea what to do except cry tears of joy and tell her thanks

now this i can relate to, im now the kind of person that people go to thinking that ill sort out there problems and of course ill put 110% in to doing that, but for once id love to be saved, just for that one time, then id be fine and content with knowing that for that one time i wasnt completly over shadowed by other peoples problems

I know how you feel..reach out. It helps

I get that, people trust me with their problems, even complete strangers. But it feels like the people who ask for my help, are unwilling to return the favor.

I know how this feels.
I'm almost always there for my friends, but when they turn on me, i'm all alone.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has a compulsive need to fix other peoples' issues

Living for the others, but who is living for you?

I am in total agreement with this. I've felt the same way my inter life. And after seeing all the comments, I can't help but wonder, if there are so many rescuers, why so many left the rescue? Maybe we are rescued, but we just don't allow ourselves to see it?

we'll be here for you just take one of our hands and trust us. we'll try not to let you down.

Maybe it is hypocritical of me, and very very selfish. But I don't think I'm a rescuer... I still want to be rescued.

Me too.
St if you ever need devart 911: just note me
Devart911...That would make a cool club lol

This almost made me cry and I never really cry. I couldn't agree more.

This is me. I wish beyond anything that someone would come and rescue me...but I already know that the only way to be saved is to save yourself.

It's quite possible that people rescue others because they really need rescuing themselves.
Society can see how people who do nothing to help themselves have a problem, but when someone is always leaping in to help others, the problem is not as easy to see.

I feel for you. I'm the rescuer of my group myself.
But to be honnest, once you need rescuing, it kinda lowers your self-esteem a bit...

Healers don't notice healers hurting.
Sounds brutal eh? But I think it's true. I'm a healer, or a rescuer, whatever word you choose to apply to it, and there's apparently another healer in our group and I never ever realized she was. Healers, in my own experience and by realizing this friend was one also, tend to mask their feelings, and put out a more confident and welcoming feel to people. Sounds cocky of me, but I was personally told that once a long time ago when I confided in a very close friend that I hurt so badly. Nobody sees you hurting, and those few that do probably aren't healers themselves.
There seem to be many healers sympathizing with you here, and I'll throw myself out there too. I'll listen, I'll help, if you like.
Good luck in your rescuing, and one day being rescued.

My friend... well, ex-best friend was a rescuer. A mother, a fixer, a rock. But, when I grew up in the past year, I didn't want it. So, I offered to be her "rescuer". I have never seen someone so offended in my life.

I know how it feels..I'm like the person everyone goes to for help..but I hardly get anyhelp myself..it hurts sometimes

Same here...same here. I mean, I have literally stepped in and stopped three attempted suicides. I am the therapist for our group.
Where were they when I needed help?

Join the freaking club.
One friend of mine made a tiny, hesitant move to return the favor once, which was very touching and really got my hopes up... then she changed her mind and decided to hate me instead. Another sincerely did her best, but ended up discovering it's too much for her. So yeah... don't count on it. But never stop rescuing people either, unless you wanna lose like 80% of them.

I would say message me if you need it, but that totally defeats the point of this doesn't it?
Let's speak hypothetically; if we were friends, and I noticed you acting different, even slightly, I would ask if something was up, because I know how it feels to be down, and have no one take it seriously enough to help you back up.
I hope someone does reach out to you without you asking<3
I wish I could.

I feel that way too a lot.
But I know I don't deserve to be.
Keep waiting for a miracle- it'll come, and it will be wonderful.
(and you have so many people that want to help you, including me. You're not so alone. =] )

We're both on the same pace. I hope you'd rescue me too

I know somebody just like you. He's one of the most amazing people I've ever known.
I'm trying really hard to connect, but I don't know how.
Give it time. You're bound to find someone who will stand at the bottom of the cliff to catch you... Even if you don't realize it at the time.

I'm actually the opposite really. As much as it's nice to feel safe, always needing to be saved makes me feel helpless and I wish I could do for the people who have helped me as much as they've done for me.
If you really need saving, try reaching out for help. Most of the time those people don't just show up because you want them to and no one can help you if they don't realize you need help.

gah, ST. i'm a rescuer too. the healer. the all encompassing carer who can make everything better.
i want someone to heal me too.
but i don't prioritise myself, so i push that to the back of my head.
tell you what, here's a deal.
i'll save you if you heal me <333

Looks like you have quite a smattering of heroes to your rescue. Add another, if you'd like.

Part of the prize of saving everyone is being ABLE to save everyone.
):
But you're right, even superman needs a lie-in one day of the year, right?
I would reccomend taking a break from it if you can for a bit, or ask for help from people if you feel you need it. It's only fair to give and take.

I probably could have used a better word than help...
I think you'll get what I mean though
