Well, twisted ... first of all, welcome to the club. Of everyone. Think of all the divorced psychologists. No, don't.
We can get lost in our problems, sometimes ... see them as bigger than they are. A little self-doubt creates more self-doubt, and the wheels keep grinding. Other people are probably not all emotionally involved, they're detached ... so they can see when our "big" problem is really a little one.
It's kind of like the monkey trap made out of a cocoanut with a hole in it tied to a tree. Put monkey food in there, and the monkey will grab the food and not let go, and can't get it's hand back out of the hole.
Or something!

because normally, when a person is not in the situation, he/she can see things clearly and can be objective about things that's why you give good advises to others as you say, unlike if you are in the situation yourself, you are usually overwhelmed by things that are happening because you are too affected. i hope i am making any sense here.

Hon I'm on the same boat. I can help everyone else then when it comes to me I can't even start to handle it. I think we purposely do it so we can forget our own griefs. It's easier to help the outside world but it's hard to help ourselves.

IT IS VERY EASY TO ADVISE OTHERS AND ESCAPE FROM YOUR OWN REAL SELF, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO ONESELF IT BECOMES DIFFICULT BECAUSE ONE BECOMES BIASED AND IS NOT ABLE TO SEE THINGS AS THEY ARE BESIDES OBJECTIVITY GETS LOST IN THE PROCESS AND BECAUSE ONE FAILS TO UNDERSTAND ONE SELF STARTS SUGGESTING OTHERS AND GIVING ONE SELF THE FALSE ASSUMPTION THAT ONE ALSO KNOWS........
