I have learned that there really is no such thing as doing it alone. Oh, I can try for a while, and I might do ok at it, but when I am trying to do it alone, I am cutting myself off from a whole world of support.
I am a person and I am not meant to be alone. I don't mean in like a relationship or something like that. I just mean that one of the main places my reasoning has gone wrong is believing and thinking that I have to do this alone. By sharing, by opening up, by simply stating to someone else what my struggles are, I am letting and inviting others to help me. And what I'vefound, they are willing to do so.
I have also learned that I can't just share with anyone. I still need to use judgment and find appropriate people who are willing to listen.
@bowserforpresident Humans are said to be social creatures, so it is wonderful that you realize the values of social connections and bonds. That being said, it is totally fine to want to be close to certain people who are understanding and supportive. They can be tricky to find, but they are out there. Thanks so much for sharing, and also thank you for all the support you have given to the community! :)
