Re: offering help

I have only read a handful of the messages on this long thread, but I just wanted to say something that may be simplistic and obvious, but how I feel about responding to certain posts or posters basically boils down to this:

It is very hard to help someone when they reject help or refuse to get the kind of help they need.


I suppose this also means that there may be times when I know I cannot help someone because the kind of help I can offer is either not the right kind of help that they need or is clearly not enough.

Further, although it is always hard to know for sure on the internet just how serious or how genuine a person's cry for help is, I know that for myself, if I feel someone has not been honest about this, then I do not feel I can help or continue to interact with that person.
