life help: Who am I to give advice? - Help.com

you are forgiven

I want you to know that I appreciate all your posts.
You should not ask for forgiveness for trying to help.
Sometimes I do find that giving advise is easier than heeding it.

hey… I too typed help because it’s what I need.
And I am thankful that I get support from people like you who tells me as it is.
The community here in help.com become more friends and less strangers through all our comments, our little way of communication and our desire to help each other out.

Wish I was there to have a glass of vodka with you :)

Well i’m raising a shot of whiskey up for you jaisi

i hope you continue to overcome.

Sometimes by helping others we help ourselves in the process. Just because you feel your life is a mess does not mean you don’t have words of meaningful advice for others. I think anyone who has a near perfect life would not be of any value in lending advice to others in need. The secret is many of us that give advice on HELP have issues of our own that we are trying to work through. We are all messed up in our own way. I too found this site by accident one night when I was in desperate need for help. The night I found HELP I was a mess. I was desperate to find someone to listen and I typed help into the keyborad; Here I am 7 months later giving advice out daily. I take breaks sometimes for weeks at a time, but I find when I am feeling bad coming here and giving advice to others helps relieve stress. You should not be asking for forgivness from us, but rather telling yourself thank you for reaching out for the help you feel you need. :)

Dang! You are the third person i have readin the past 5 minutes that i can identify with completely on the same problem. I feel as though I could have typed your question.

I hope you decide to stick around and give advice to others! We are glad you found us!:)

i know exactly what you mean! you come on here randomly and start readin peoples comments, then before you know it you are commenting yourself and giving out advice to people. you might not give the best, most imspiring answers but your eaching out in an effort of kindness and if it helps sort your own thoughts out then it cant be a bad thing.
