Anti-spyware

I felt this post on a personal level. I have a bad tendency to let my bleeding heart get the better of me. Had some people I know online as just loosely casual chat friends. But then one has been in a bad depressive state due to a breakup. But then now for almost a year, it's been as you describe. Sending messages first thing in the morning almost sounding like a bot with short messages of woe is me. Shooting down any encouragement, attempts to help, mentions of my own similar lived experiences to offer them perspective and suggestions how to handle their situation. Then come back to start this line of communication all over again a few days later while I am at work. Mental health during times of hardship is a challenge and I am totally sympathetic, but even a bleeding heart like me has limits.
