Emotional Support
This is the most important one for me. I have my God and my husband and friends that
I know will be there to encourage me and walk with me through all of life’s
challenges. I have certain friends that
support me more in one area then another that I will call upon during specific
challenges. Just telling someone how I
feel or what my frustrations are relieves a lot of stress. It’s great when I can do this without fear of
judgment.
Support from others
I have colleges and neighbors that support me by joining me
in solving a problem or contributing a specific skill set that they have where
I might lack.
Physical Support
There are many things I am just not physically able to do
that my husband does such as fixing my car or plumbing. If it wasn’t for him I would go broke paying
other people to do those things. I find
it very helpful to know I can count on these things to be done and it frees up
time for me to worry about other things on my list.
I could not imagine how difficult it would be to live
without these supports. I would not be
able to do all of the things that I do in life as I would have to spend way too
much time doing things that are difficult for me.
