no, these people probably feel they can talk to you, because you're probably a good listener. it doesnt mean you're depressed, if you feel that they are dragging you down though you might want to talk to them about it but say it in a nice way.

honestly and this isnt meant to be mean, but you are a "fixer" you look for friends you can try to fix, or help in some way. this isnt a character flaw unless you are influenced by thier behavior enough to start doing these thing to yourself.

Everybody has problems. The best thing you can do is try to be there for your friends, when they need you. Do you attract these types of people? perhaps. Maybe it's easy for you to relate to each other because you're going through similar problems, in your lives.

Some of us seem to be magnets for weird. I am not brain damaged. But all of my real friends and my husband are. And old men love to chase me down to tell me how big and strong and brave and smart they used to be. In fact, just yesterday an 86-year-old man chased me to my car to tell me that he'd never gotten beat up. Never saw the guy before. In the check-out line he'd told me his age, where his wife was, what he'd done for a living, and how many kids they had. So no, it's probably not because of what you do. But stop that.

you can always be a good friend an be there to help other people, but rule number one they have to ask for help if something is too much for them to deal , dont make other peoples problems yours, they also have a way to think and work on them like the rest of us, be there to listen and talk good luck ........... try not to save the world but save urself first .and............... feliz navidad !

Hard to say. You would be best served by seeing a qualified Doctor.

Everyone has problems, find the joy in working through it.

There is something called the Law of Attraction in the universe, Like Attracts Like. It may be that you are helpful to these people, but there is something in you that resonates with them. So there are two things that can be going on here. Either you are a 2 on the Enneagram, (check out this site, http://www.ucmeta.org/Pages/ArticlesDire... it will have a huge amount of free information in this list on the Enneagram within a week or two, just scroll down alphabetically, sorry it's not there yet, but they're working on it right now and you'll find it fasscinating if you check it within a few days) which is the "Helper" and wants to help everyone. OR you are depressed yourself and you are attracting them.
