I’m terrible about it - can’t inconvenience anyone. How do you do it?

I’m not particularly good at it. I’m better at it here because there’s some anonymity.

I’m trying to get better at it, particularly at work because things have the potential to spiral into stressful situations which sets of my symptoms.

I can’t ask things of people. I don’t like burdening them, it makes me so guilty. Even little things like, “Please pass the salt?”

I’m like that too. It got me nowhere in life :expressionless: I would rather do it harder way or suffer in silence than ask for help.

With family not too bad. With the psychiatric profession ,after past abusive experiences when seeking more help, not good.

I’m a “do it yourself” kind of helper.
