I identify with that description. It's just so much easier to find motivation knowing others are counting on me. Whereas I struggle to take basic care of myself (food and sleep are the big ones. I'm at work today on <2 hours of sleep.). I intellectually know what I need to do, but still can't seem to consistently get myself to follow through. Is this a common problem your patients deal with and what are some approaches you'd recommend?

Thank you for the response. I definitely know I need to be well myself before I can help others. "Put on your own oxygen mask before assisting others." and all. And I think I understand where my behavior is coming from. It's just that addressing those issues is a psychological problem I've never solved. My work around is to stick to habits (morning and evening routine, laundry always Monday after work) I can do without having motivation come into it.

It's comforting knowing I'm not the only one, despite what it sometimes feels like.

I just have low self esteem and helping others gives me a feeling of being worth something. I'm a burnt out smart kid, so no personal accomplishment I do is worth celebrating. It's just expected I do well. (I know that's not healthy, I'm working on it.) Being selfless isn't attached to any personal accomplishment and lets me feel good about a thing I did. So in a way I guess?

Ohhey! My friend just introduced me to We Were Here a few weeks ago. We just played through We Were Here Too. Thanks for making these!

Why do you think you've stuck with the same theming for 4 games now?

Ain't that how it always is... If you don't mind me asking a follow up, where'd that backstory come from?

Not so much in the fiction, who came up with it and what was the inspiration? It feels like something out of Dark Souls or Warhammer fantasy.
