I have my own issues right now that I don't know how to deal with, and because I am the way I am everyone else's issues are my first priority. Now... I know the analogy of putting the oxygen mask on yourself first and because I have been told to do that I would. However in my situations that is easier said than done.  In January of this year Miles started having b...
