Support from Others

Sometimes, we may feel it is a sign of weakness to get support from others, or that we should not trouble our family and friends with the difficulties that we are facing. It takes great courage to show our vulnerable side to them. When we cannot manage alone, having a listening ear and or receiving practical support from others would be useful.

When I was feeling so down yesterday morning, I told a friend on msn about my mood and his support and encouragement really helped to cheer me up. Family and close friends can be good sources of support - strengthen these relationships. Make time for that long overdue dinner appointment that was postponed due to your busy schedule.
