Lesson Overview

6.44 – What to Do When You Feel Like a Burden: Feeling like a burden usually means you’ve been made to carry too much. Guilt whispers that your needs are too heavy, but that’s a lie. Everyone deserves support when life gets hard. Start by challenging that inner voice with facts: you matter, and your feelings count. Talking about your pain doesn’t drain others—it creates connection. Reach out to people who make space for you without judgment. Practice self-compassion by treating yourself as kindly as you would a friend. Remember that needing help doesn’t mean weakness; it means you’re human. Set realistic expectations for yourself instead of perfection. You bring value simply by existing and growing. Every time you ask for help, you show courage that leads toward healing.
