Seeking Help Is a Sign of Strength
Launch library · evergreen read
Reaching out for help takes genuine courage, and it is a sign of strength and self awareness rather than any kind of weakness or failure. This is worth knowing whether or not you ever decide to use it. This is worth asking about directly, without any hesitation at all. This is a right worth knowing about, whether or not it is used.
Every person who has ever picked up the phone to a support line took that same brave first step, in their own time and their own way. It remains true at every stage of what can be a difficult process. It remains true regardless of the path someone ultimately chooses to take.
