[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have learned with my own kid that i have to drop the expectation that he'll say "hey, I need help, I'm sinking here." It hasn't happened yet. FWIW asking for help seems very, very difficult for him. But I can read in his behavior when he does need help, and then provide it, and though college is messy he is managing and learning. [/quote] Phew, this describes my kid (high school sophomore) to a tee. He just got back into therapy and one of my goals for the therapy is to try to unpack what is at the root of kid's unwillingness to ask for help and see if there might be a therapeutic path toward addressing it. Without solving that, it just feels like kid is going to be in one spiral after another. [/quote]
