Some possible reasons for this are because I'm afraid that doing so will force me to confront a problem; because I suspect that I should have done so earlier, and so asking for help would be admitting this; because I can't find good advice.<br /><br />The first 2 are the hardest 2 I've found to deal with and the best way I've found is to be really honest with myself and try to avoid ego getting in the way.<br /><br />The last one just takes some more effort to find what I need.<br /><br />On the flip side, sometimes I've asked for help when, with a bit more patience and confidence, I could have got by more efficiently without it.<br /><br />I guess the best answer (for me anyway) is to try to be honest with myself as to why I'm asking for help.<br /><br />Guess I could do with some brevity when my comment is longer than the post that inspired it!Alan Russellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29070294.post-32939570665707906952010-02-19T11:37:21.121+00:002010-02-19T11:37:21.121+00:00Did you decide to see a physio?Did you decide to see a physio?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
