I totally agree
the hard part is that not all people have a network of emotional support and it's harder for some than others to open up and talk about their problems or to seek a therapist.
life has an interesting way to play with us sometimes.

That's true.

But also, at the end of the day, the change has to come from the inside. Yes, people can help you, and give you support, but if you don't want to change at the core, then you won't change.

The good thing about it is that even a lonely person still has an opportunity to change, even without any supporting network. It will probably be more difficult of course, but it's still possible.

yes, great point
if there's a person who doesn't want to be helped nobody will be able to help them in the end.

it's interesting to thing about these adaptative mechanisms that help us thrive in a challenging world (lol this could be a headline for some kind of animal planet doc)
sometimes I wonder what makes people change... insights? divine inspiration? changes in their neuro circuits or even neuro chemistry?
