Help help I'm drowning

I'm drowning "Help, help!!!"
or even worse you don't even shout for help.

Why?
Ask yourself.
Am i too prideful to ask for help?
Am i ashamed for what i did, what my situation is etc?

People are motivated by 2 things.
We get towards pleasure or we push away from pain.

You are probably in the deepest pit of darkness you've ever been
and you are holding in your emotions as much as you can bear.
Your thoughts are spiraling, your mind is in a mess, your situations are not getting any better in fact worse.
You muster every bit of strength in you to reach out for help but yet you withdrew the moment help arrives.
Then finally you gave it the last push from within you "I can't take this anymore" and reached for the nearest person.
A response came, but yet you push the hand of help away and reject other hands to help.
Why?
You're in so much pain, more than you can bear but yet in spite of all that pain, it means more pain to you getting yourself vulnerable, exposed, surrendered etc. So you push it away as its more painful to you than the pain of what you're going through.

Acceptance. This is the first step and the most important.
Helps begins with yourself.
If you're a believer then know that Christ has already died to save you while you were unable to help yourself.
He already did that for you, what's your response?
Accept or reject?
