Great blog Venus! I would feel the same as you, even though I know my friends wouldn't care either. We are just harder on ourselves than anyone else.

I loved this post and I'm glad the question spurred so many awesome ideas. I agree that even when friends are amazing and supportive it still can be hard not to feel guilty accepting the help. And definitely true that understanding the choice to let them in to help is so important.

Congrats on your first and awesome blog! I agree that it is important to focus on the things we can change. Still it can be hard to get past the crappy things I have no control over. Luckily we are part of an awesome group of people who are working at making changes to better our lives as ACT1's.

Great post! If I could change anything, it would be that I had endless energy and motivation to have the best control possible. That would be nice. It sounds like you have great friends a people around you who support you. Those of us who have that are extremely lucky.

So glad to read a blog from you Venus! Excellent job too . And I agree with you on the education part … I think that’s the best thing we can do for others since there is such a lack of knowledge.
