    Yes, I do. That makes for a rough life's ride, but it is also one of the reasons that I know that I know. It is also a reason I can spot a talker from a mile away! Talk is cheap. Most people want others to shoulder their own burdens, emotionally. Never works unless they can find somebody codependent enough to be a scapegoat.

    If someone asks for advice about something I can relate to, had good results from, I share my experience and tell them what worked... for me at least. I really try to never suggest someone do something I would NOT do, etc. I'd be full of shite then if I did.

    I wish I took my own advice sometimes but I am often lazy or don't have time to think about my own problems and how to solve them or should I say I don't like to think about my own problems or how to solve them. I prefer giving other people advice and solving other people's problems, it's easier than solving my own and I don't get angry or frustrated. It would be nice if I had someone to do the same for me.

    To me, that is one of the addictions of co-dependency; it is always easier to shift the focus and resolution of our own problems to somebody else and their problems, and avoid our issues for another day (or week, or month... or forever).

    sometimes my own advice helps me, but it usually comes from someone else who I gave it to first. Then I get it.

    i try not to give advice unless someone asks me what i should do. Too many people jump to conclusions and give their opinion rather than actually listening to the person. I find this rude so i try to avoid giving someone an answer if they are not looking for one.

    No, that's why its called advice. You can't give it to yourself.

    Obviously, it defeats the purpose of giving advice if you hadn't been shoes deep in the crap you walked out of.
