Good topic and excellent first post, firestorm.
At times I don't ask for help because I think I am the only one with the problem, and I don't want people to see that particular 'weakness' in me.
When in fact, others share the exct same problems.
All too often I compare the way I feel
inside to the way someone else appears on the
outside, as they are hiding their problems as well.
Additionally, I used to be a huge ego-maniac with a severe inferiority complex.
