That's exactly how I am. I can't afford to let the blues get to me, as I could well be deep down there long after the others have recovered!
Looking for someone with just the same problems is, to me, like saying you want to share your woes, but don't want to actually do anything about it. So no point in me being distracted enough to give too much time with my best, sincere opinion, if it's going to be time and words wasted.
I do think that does sound harsh but, deep down, it's honest. Best thing is to disguise it with some pleasantries, but still firmly not let the other person lead the way on their own negative terms. It just goes downhill.
