Thank you KE. I think I am at a similar stage than you and have had the same disconnected feelings with newcomers. I sometimes feel like I just want to shake them into a stage that took me years to achieve.
After a couple of days of retrospection, I realised that they remind me of a difficult time in my life, a time I would rather forget about. I am not able to give the support a newcomer deserves and have decided to rather withdraw from posting for a while. Your post put my feelings clearly into words.
