Asking for help
I asked a friend for a big favour yesterday. I was anxious about asking, I thought maybe I was overstepping.
THey said "yes" and "great, I would like to ask you to help me with something"
They had been wondering if the favour they wanted from me was too big. .
Sometimes asking for help gives others permission to ask for our help

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
I found reaching out very difficult and yet it opens so many doors to a two way flow of help.
In Al-anon I learnt to be mindful of who I ask, to have discernment whether a person is a toxic person. If so, not to ask them. This was a useful skill for me to learn. Mentally healthy people love to help and for it to be two way.
