## Resource

Some people would rather struggle in silence than ask for help. Not because they don't need it, but because they've convinced themselves that needing help is the same as being weak, incapable, or a burden. If you've ever said, "I'll figure it out," when you really wanted someone to say, "I've got you," this conversation is for you.
