Hi Bizi!
I have some strong feelings about this. First let me say I don't know the group or anything, so maybe this is all hot air... but:
For some of us being able to identify and reach out (uh, I think it is called empathy...) IS the therapeutic process. Some of us never thought we had anything to offer. Some of us never realized anyone else had the same feelings. Learning how it feels to share, and then see this help someone else is nothing less than extraordinary. As for narcissism or "co-dependence" - it is the group leader/facillitator/therapist's role to keep things moving in healthy directions. I've seen good and bad group therapists alike. Taking an interest in wanting to help someone, or share your solution to a similar problem is never a bad thing.
So I just don't get this really...
I think you've been *wonderfully* supportive to us here...
