There may be certain times when professional advice is needed. Unfortunately, some may feel the community is looking down upon them if they seek this help. We often think we can make it on our own even through the worst situations. Here are some ways to identify and build supports around you and your family at this time. Talk to your family.
Families are the best source of support.
Sharing ideas, concerns and working out solutions together is important. For a little while, it is an opportunity to take your mind off your worries. It is important to realize that not everyone sees a situation the same way. What is stressful to one person may not be for another. Everyone has their own past experiences that influence how they look at and deal with situations.
