In the life of any person, sooner or later there comes a time when someone from his environment finds himself in a difficult situation. Many people think about how they can support a person, since lately there has been more and more talk about the fact that not all help is appropriate. And this is true. Let's look at what can be done in such situations. The first and most obvious thing is to ask the person what kind of support they need and what can be done for them. What is good and useful for one person may be completely unacceptable for another. Many people in difficult periods generally want privacy and do not want advice, sympathy, or help. Before asking for help, it is a good idea to assess your own condition. If you yourself are in a low-resource state and objectively do not have the strength to help another person, then you should not turn on the “rescuer”. It won't do anyone any good. The same applies to financial assistance. Many, in pursuit of the status of a “superhero,” throw themselves into charity, without having enough money to provide for their own life. Remember the stories about parents who run to take out loans because their over-aged “children” have done something (we are not talking about emergency situations, of course, when someone is seriously ill, for example). Think about whether your help is shifting to you are responsible. No matter how sad it may sound, millions of people in the world live in a state of “victim”, and something happens to them all the time. Helping them on an ongoing basis means being responsible for their lives and simply “sorting out” what they themselves are able to sort out. If someone in need of help simply voices their wishes and then withdraws from participating in resolving the situation, then you should think carefully about whether it is worth continuing to help. Evaluate your motives impartially. Maybe there are always people around you who need your help? Then this is a serious reason to think about what main message you convey to others. Maybe you don’t know how to refuse, you constantly feel guilty that you couldn’t help everyone around you, are you afraid of being “bad”? Talk to yourself, the answers to these questions will clarify the picture well. Of course, when a loved one really has trouble, an emergency or a critical situation, only the first point is appropriate; there is no time to think there. Sometimes there are events that require mobilization of strength and full involvement in the process. Tell us about situations when you provided help and when you yourself needed it.
