When to Ask for Advice

Everybody has somebody they to go for advice, such as a spouse, lover, family member or a friend.

People need to know when to go to them for advice.  Not everybody can handle giving advice or to listen to somebody else’s problems all the time.  You must put into consideration the person that you are going to because they maybe going through a rough patch in their life too.
   
Not everybody can go through stress very well.  Some people, when they listen to somebody else’s problems, take them in as their own.  If they are going through their own problems, whatever they maybe, it could take a toll on their health or mental state of mind.  If that person becomes depressed because of handling their own problems along with somebody else’s problems, no one could tell what they would do.  Some people when they get depressed they try to commit suicide and sometimes they succeed.  I do not think you would want that on your conscious, especially if they do it after you told them your problem.  Then you would think that you might have had something to do with why they did it.
   
So when you ask somebody for advice make sure that they will be handle it.  Also, when asking them, if they could help you before you tell them your whole problem.  If you don’t want to take any chances with asking somebody that you know, there are other ways that could help you.  Depending on the situation, depends on where you can go. There are marriage councilors, psychiatrist, and many other places you can go for help.  Even though they cost money, they are trained on listening and helping people through their problems.  Also, by going to somebody that you don’t know personally you don’t have to worry about your problem becoming public to everybody that you know.
