I have always had to stand on my own two feet so was never one that would ask for help but since my husband died I realised that I need help. I have found that most people love to help as it makes them feel good. Its a win win

A few very good points there! I’ve always had a problem with asking for help. I find it very hard to get it out if my head that just because I need help doesn’t mean I’m weak, useless or a failure. But I’m working on it!

That’s interesting! Thanks for sharing this!

wonderful

I have such a hard time asking for help. Maybe I should explore the reason why it’s so hard for me to do so.

been in their shoes? offer the help!

I am getting better at this

It is very hard for me to ask for help.

These have been great to read a bit of fun too!

I have always had a problem asking for help, don’t want to appear vulnerable i suppose.

Shared this message yesterday Debbie-a brilliant message and challenge.

I think the important part there is having the network of people around you that you can ask for help.

I’m not ashamed to ask for help when I need it . Thanks for another great video clip Debbie.

This is one of the hardest things to do – ask for help. But it is so easy to give help and to offer to help. I have friends who constantly ask me if I need help, but I never seem to be able to accept as I just don’t know how they can help. Will hope you share some thoughts on this dilemma too, Debbie. But this is being a great challenge.

Asking for help is the hardest thing in the world to do yet we all know that we should

Lke it

Guilty!!!!!! I never ever ask for help I dont know why – well maybe it is because i think that who ever tries to help me will not do it as good as I would and therefore I would have to redo it so why not just do it myself the first time and then it is done my way and I am happy! – maybe that is a little OCD but it’s why I dont ask for help!

I have always hated and found it hard to ask for help, but always been open to helping others. I think I need to ask for help more often and just be less afraid that it shows weakness by needing help.

well it does take a village to raise a child so don’t be afraid to ask for help

I love your advice Debbie as it makes me take stock and remember the little – but important – things. I’m hopeless at asking for help.
