Why won’t anyone help me?

Hey~

How are you today?

Deaf ears

Do you ever reach out to your friends and get little if any response? Do you ever get baffled by the lack of response? It is not so unusual for people to try to get help from the people they know to just be ignored. Ignored.

Why won’t anyone help me?

The reason you don’t get a lot of support can be for various reasons. It may be the help you need. That is, maybe they don’t know how to help you.  It may be that you ask too often. It may be that they don’t understand you are asking for help. Or, it can be any number of things.

You still need help

If you are not getting the help you need, you still need help. Quite often you just need someone to listen. When you talk through an issue, it often sorts itself out. Then a plan can be made. You can either make a plan on how you can make things better by yourself or how to get the help you need.

Don’t be alone

Things are rarely as bad as they seem. They just seem worse than they are because you are thinking about it too much. When you have something that is bothering you, you may dwell on it. When you do that, you make it grow. The worst case scenario starts to build in your mind.

Don’t be alone. There are two options to not being alone. One, pick one person you think is the best to turn to, and make that person listen. Just listen. Make sure that you really need to be heard.  Two, if you  have no one that will step up and listen, then you have to find someone who will. There are professional listeners out there. Life coaches are such people.

Life coaches are thinking partners. They listen. They question. They guide you to the core of the issue and then to the answer.

It would be my pleasure.

It would be my pleasure to listen. But, if not me, then find someone. But my advice is to find someone that keeps it simple. If someone wants to complicate things, that is not helpful. Don’t be with someone who turns molehills into mountains. Find someone who will turn that mountain into a molehill.

Never Be Alone

Hey~

Are you there?

Alone

Do you ever feel alone? Do you ever feel as if you are facing the world by yourself? Why? Is it because you have no friends? Is it because you have no family? Or is it because you feel no one is supporting you? Do you try to talk about things that are bothering you and it feels like you are talking to a brick wall?

If you are feeling alone, that is a terrible feeling. Everyone feels that way sometimes. It may make you feel hopeless. It may make you feel small. It may wear you out and then you feel tired. You may feel invisible.  Is any of this ringing true for you?

Never be alone

No one should ever feel alone. Frankly, not everyone listens very well. People are busy. They don’t always want to take the time to really understand your frustrations. They are also pre-occupied. They are thinking about their own life, Facebook, Twitter, what to eat, cleaning house or any number of things. It isn’t that they don’t care. Truly, I think most people care about others. But sometimes they don’t know how to express their caring.

What to do

The best thing to do when you feel this way is to find someone to listen. It could be any counselor. A professional counselor is trained to listen. They are trained to ask the right questions. I know that 45 minutes with a good counselor can make a world of difference. A professional counselor is committed to helping you. As I like to say, if it matters to you, it matters. And a professional counselor loves to listen. They are curious about people. And it is their nature to want to help. So, find a person to listen. Find a thinking partner. You will get through it.

OK. Feel a little better? I hope so.
