Hi Tommy

Are you lacking compassion? To me your intent was compassionate? It simply didn’t work out as intended. If only everyone could feel better with a quick shock.

A large part of this forum is not knowing how things are going to turn out. People come here in pain. You try and help as best you can and they leave.

I remember when I had therapy. The goal of therapy and even here is for people to learn to help themselves. In the moment, a person might not be ready. I know I wasn’t. But we have memories and if you share something that one day might be useful, that is a job well done.

You apologised. You live and you learn. You can stop beating yourself up now.

Wishing you all the best! ❤️🙏
