I'v ealways liked to be there for people when they're going through a rough patch but lately it seems as though there has been a rapidly growing number of friends and aquaintances who continually whine and sodding whinge to me about the same problems yet refuse to actually do anything to help themselves.
I'm a nice person, honestly, but i can't take much more of this before I totally snap at someone. I'll be there for them and help them but they need to realise I'm not their emotional sponge there to soak up every little worry and complaint. What do i do?

I don't think you should just ignore them but don't be mean about it when you tell them that your annoyed by the same question everytime.
