Exactly. There is no point. All the billboards and PSAs and suicide awareness marches do is tell us to “get help.” Nice. It’s like someone drowning in the ocean and all the people on the beach are chanting “get help.” Humans are hilarious.
I/m not sure? To enjoy the things you don’t need help with? It would be amazing if every time I reached out I’d get help! Most of the time I have to give something back.
I suppose it depends on the kind of help you’re looking for. If there’s specific issues you’re having then there’s probably someone out there with greater experience of how to deal with it. But you’ll have to really track them down. If you’re just looking for someone to listen then again there are people who are good at that. But everyone’s fallible, and limited in their view of reality. No one has it all figured out.
