Mental support? What is anyone going to realistically be able to do to help that? They can’t. All it does is place a burden upon someone with a ton of shit already going on in their lives. Hell, even fucking therapists that you pay money to see and are supposed experts don’t even seem to be able to do fucking shit about that. What the hell is a friend gonna do for free?
A physical task? I’ll just struggle and do it myself or see if I can pay someone to do it. Not sure why I would be a burden to ask someone to help with some dumb bullshit just because I’m a loser with no other friends.
I would absolutely gladly help anyone I know who needs help. But it’s a different scenario. I have no life so people aren’t bothering me. Other people have lives so I am bothering them.
Um… anything? I ask people for help all the time. And then they help me and are happy to do so. People like helping other people. However, I’ve discovered that they don’t like:
Having all their suggestions shot down without due consideration.
When the person they are helping isn’t putting in much effort.
When the person they are helping considers their help worthless.
When they are the only person the person they are helping is calling for help.
When the person they are helping always complains about things, but never appreciates the progress they’ve made, the help they’ve received, or the options they have.
Helping a friend and seeing them succeed is one of the best feelings in the world. Trying to help someone and seeing them flounder because they refuse to listen to sound advice and do the obvious but difficult work is a shitty feeling.
Honestly what would I even ask for help with?
