I consider myself very giving and caring as a person, but if I'm stressed out or sick and can give no more of myself - I notice some people I associate with get very P.O'd. How can I stop caring what they think?

The fact that you're trying to stop caring what they think instead of asking yourself what you can do better is already a step in the right direction. I was in the same situation as you once - it took some time, but I realized that my friends were "takers", the type of people who are content to keep accepting a person's generosity and friendly nature as long as it keeps coming without giving anything in return. They're selfish people and instead of thinking of what they can do to help you when you're out of sorts, they only care about how soon you can be back to normal and giving them what they want (attention, favors, etc...). Most of the people I knew who acted this way didn't remain my friends for very long, because I quickly found out there was no changing them. That's all I can suggest to you, to remember that the people you're associating with are using you and anyone who does that isn't worth the worry if you don't satisfy their desires.

Continue seeing yourself as giving and caring, but add in there being important and worth attention. The others are just used to you always being there for them. Let them know that you need some good stuff too. Nothing to feel guilty about, just listen to yourself as well as you listen to others.
