From the Little Red Book

On your own but not alone...

Each of us, grown-ups and young people, often get so overwhelmed with our own problems that we often think we're alone, that no one wants to help or even cares. It's important to remember two things about that: that we all need to offer help when we think it's wanted, and that none of us be afraid to ask when we need it. [...] so we all know a little of each other's problems. We are not alone.
