When they don't fight

In the world we live, there are daily struggles, some are harder than others but we all have them, when those around us fight, we gain strength and we know we are not alone. We work together and we WILL get through it.

But when someone doesn't, ever, fight. We lose hope, we lose our ability to fight, "crying doesn't mean you're weak, it means you've been fighting too long" And it's true, we sometimes are not at our full strength, whether it's a 'low day' whether it's depression or whether it's just a bad day, but sometimes we are weakened by something and it's on those days we need our loved ones to help take the load a little, or even just pick up the slack. But when our loved ones are in a worse place than we are, then we are happy to pick up the slack, even if we're having troubles with our own load, we do it cause we love them. 

But when they don't stop. When they give you their troubles and don't fight at all, always not fighting, sometimes it becomes too much, and sometimes we can't do it any more..

What does that make us? 

Where does that leave us?
With a loved one we can't support as it's driving us further into our own hole from which we can't escape, 

We know they've gone to a dark place of their own, we understand they need help, but we've been fighting two battles for too long and right now we need a break and a respite.
Is that wrong? 

Does that make us bad?

Hopefully, one day, we can get back to a mutual place, but right now, personal space is needed.
