Wow Carl this is great!
I can def relate to how hard it can be to ask for help! I think it’s part of my stubbornness where I feel I need to do well and that I can do it all by myself so I don’t need anyone’s help. smh
I’ve learned that reaching out for help, getting help, asking for help, extra help, school help, ANY HELP really humbles me and helps me in my “helping/recovery process”
Thanks for sharing your story — that’s awesome that you’re working in the field of… HELPING PEOPLEEEEE! <3
