On help-seeking (the third trap)

By Steve Hauptman

~~~hand-reaching-out framed1. I have problems I can’t solve without help.

2. I am afraid that if I ask for help I will be rejected.

3. I decide to offer help to others, in hopes it will be reciprocated.

4. Others see me as a helpful person instead of one who needs help.

5. I come to see myself in the same way.

6. So I never ask for help, and nobody ever offers it.

7. I resent the people I am helping.
