There is definitely a difference between being supported and being rescued. Very important point.

Never ever let some rescue you against your will, or get pulled in to rescuing someone that didn't necessarily need the help.

When I was training to be a lifeguard I got taught...if someone is panicing, and likely to drag you down/drown you...punch them in the nose and swim away until they calm down and are able to co-operate in their own rescue/assisted life-saving experience
