I simply want to say to you all ... don’t ever be afraid to ask for help. Charlie Mackesy illustrates and conveys it so beautifully with his simplistic authenticity in his book ‘The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse’ (read it if you haven’t). No matter what it is you may be struggling with, it becomes easier to bear and work through, once it is shared and you can get help. Of course there may be discretion required and wisdom to know with whom to share. I hate the thought of someone feeling completely alone, maybe too scared or too ashamed to ask for help. It could be that you fear being misunderstood or not believed ... you may not even want to believe the truth yourself.
There is nothing quite like the touching of hearts during pain. Words are initially rarely needed. Recovery may be a long way off, but it can start with the relief and comfort of asking for help.
Reach out ... you are not alone.
