People tend to keep important information from other people because they don't want to be a burden. We do have our own problems, so you can see why people don't want to relay there's.

These type of things have a way of getting back to people, and by the time it happens, the problem has increased. Because a person who needs help decides to tackle the problem on their own to less than favorable results.

Let's face it, sometimes its better to be a burden early on, because if you put the weight of the world on your shoulders you'll be crushed by said weight.

There's no shame in getting help for your problems. When said problem is enhanced because you don't get help.
