(NB. just realised that I'm interested in sending you a link which will fix you, then checking that it doesn't go to -1 votes instantly, to get my own validation here as "helping", instead of sympathising with your stressful and difficult situation without trying to fix it.

isn't that what we narcissistic generations built the "social" parts of the internet for, after all?)

It's OK to expect validation that you did a good thing or didn't do a bad thing, we are social animals. It's only a problem when this need starts taking over your life, much like any addiction?

Thanks for the comment btw.
