Maybe this is just because on the relative scale of My Heart Is Black, Cold, And Made Of Stone to My Heart Is So Squishy-Soft And Bleeding It Needs An Ambulance, I'm a little closer to the former extreme, but...

Two non-profits, seeing-eye-dog puppies, trying to get a job in research? If I did that I'd feel strung out and overinvolved (out of all these kinds of things, I am only involved with the last one, and that's because it's my chosen path in life).

And you've mentioned in the "Do you want to learn" thread that you're seeing a therapist.

You need some emotional armor and maybe a stronger sense of self-preservation.
