A sense of purpose, a reason to keep going against your own troubles, and a feeling of meaningful accomplishment when you do help.

Perhaps compare yourself to a healer, who does with physical wounds what you do with mental ones -- are they not often driven by a desire to stand steadfast in the face of suffering, and oppose it with all their might?
