Don't Be A Jerk

When someone opens up and reveals things about what they're going through, they are not necessarily trying to get attention.
When they go through great lengths to pour out what they've kept bottled up inside for far too long, they're not necessarily looking for sympathy.
It is good to unload because keeping things bottled up is not healthy.
So, if someone chooses to bare their soul to you, don't be quick to judge.
If you have nothing nice to say, nothing good to contribute, then just keep quiet. There is no need to add salt to the wound to make them feel miserable. Be kind. Be supportive if you can. And before you start making judgment, try putting yourself in their shoes. Shit happens to everyone.
