I do this too. I feel like I help others all the time but I don't want to ask for help because I don't like other people doing things for me. Definitely not a healthy mindset.
I don’t ask them for help because social anxiety. Also not the same.
Yea that one too
The sexual tension between me and never asking for help because I hate interacting with people.
Oh yeah that's hot
The sexual tension between me and writing a post for 5 minutes then leaving the thread without posting
I don't ask for help because I don't feel like I need/deserve it
Yea idk what it is like Ive wanted yo reach out to a certain helpful resource for ~6 months now. Been working on the problem myself for that time and I'm improving but still want to utilize that resource. Tf is even wrong with me.
Ironically not asking for help is exactly why you’re weak
Or you just know that the people around you have their own issues or are incapable of being of help the way you need it... can we stop trying to make everyone feel lesser, please?
No
Toxic masculinity is one hell of a drug
Always has been
Not asking for help makes you look weak
It doesn't feel right to ask for help, or rather, it didn't used to feel right. I am getting better at accepting help and compliments, but it still feels weird. I enjoy giving help more than receiving it honestly
