Seeking help is not a sign of weakness from "summary" of I Do Again by Cheryl Scruggs,Jeff Scruggs

It can be easy to fall into the trap of thinking that asking for help is a sign of weakness. We live in a society that often values independence and self-sufficiency above all else. However, the truth is that seeking help is actually a sign of strength. It takes courage to admit that we can't do it all on our own, and that we need the support of others to help us through difficult times. In our own journey, we discovered the power of seeking help when our marriage was on the brink of collapse. We had tried to fix things on our own for so long, but nothing seemed to work. It wasn't until we finally reached out to a counselor for help that we were able to start making real progress. Therapy gave us a safe space to air our grievances, work through our issues, and learn healthier ways of communicating with each other. It was through this process that we were able to truly understand each other's perspectives and start rebuilding the trust that had been broken. Seeking help doesn't mean that we are weak or incapable. It simply means that we are willing to do whatever it takes to make things right. Whether it's seeking therapy for a struggling marriage, talking to a friend about our mental health struggles, or reaching out to a mentor for guidance in our career, asking for help is a powerful act of self-care. We all have our limits, and there is no shame in admitting when we have reached them. By seeking help, we are taking control of our own well-being and showing that we are willing to put in the work to create positive change in our lives. So, the next time you find yourself struggling, remember that seeking help is not a sign of weakness - it is a sign of strength.
