My sister said to me that she realized that no matter what she took it wasn't fixing things. This helped her pull out of the life. This brilliant young friend of yours may come to that realization. But you wish you could show her the shortcut around the interval of pain. Everything you say about her says a super special soul worth saving.
I am not sure if it gets easier. I am inclined to think so. As we get older and deal with more things in our lives and around our lives it seems to make us stronger and more able to cope. The skills I have now and my responses improve each year. There is still a lot of yucky stuff but the overall picture seems to improve as we evolve.
You are a person that works very very hard at it. You are honest with yourself and others. You have an emmense amount of experience in life and the system. You give readily of yourself. All of that investment has to lead to a level of Peace at some point. You see the pain in others and yourself. You can offer help. Feel the pain. But can still have a sense of peace and rightness that you are doing everything possible for the right reasons. Do you take time for your self?
