That's what I thought when I first saw your thread in the morning, PTC, and I said to myself - who do you think you are, lady?!

I also find it incredibly difficult to ask for help, to the point that I rarely do and even then it's only ever if I can't do something myself.

Occasionally I like tea and sympathy and comfort but it's pretty rare for me to overide my mangy dog tendencies long enough to appreciate or ask for it.

I'm the same way. I don't really have any sources of help I can be comfortable with, but generally asking for help doesn't come easy to me, either. Not because I feel I don't deserve it or I think I'll be turned down; I just don't feel like asking people who are not that close to me.

I wouldn't blame ya.

That's how I feel about it.

Most people aren't their self when they are sick. I either turn into a baby and am rather stupid(not thinking right) Or become the wicked witch of the west. To others that are sick around me, I'm very nurturing.
