Why doesn't anybody else seem to be struggling as much as I am? And why can't they see how much I need some help?

They do, everyone does, however we can see only our struggle. We complain that no one help us, but we don't help others too

A lot of people struggle, they just don't show it to the outside world. Sometimes pride plays a role and people don't want to admit they are struggling or that they don't have things under control. Unfortunately you have to be upfront with people sometimes when reaching out for help. They can not read your mind or thoughts and are sometimes so busy with their own lives that they miss the signals you are sending them. It doesn't mean they don't care, it just means they did not notice your underlining signals you were trying to send them.

Each person has their problems. You may feel isolated but millions of others experience this everyday. You are never alone.

You have a different mindset as them. You might have a slower way of processing information, but that means that you are thoughtful, very smart, and creative. Needing help doesn't mean you are stupid, it means that your brain is thinking extra hard.

The world is full of many different problems but also many different people. When you pair up a different people with the same problem they will react differently, it also works in reverse where the same person might react differently to different problems. In conclusion everyone sees things differently.

Nobody is going to know what you're going through if you don't talk it out with them. Try having a peaceful conversation with others, and see where the conversation goes! They might need you more than you need them.

Often, our struggle is extremely internalised. Of course, the is always the discrepancy between who you believe yourself and who others believe you to be, but I think in this case it goes even further. Mental struggle is not evident from outside, especially if you isolate yourself. So others might not see you struggle, and you might feel like no one is struggling as much as you for the same reasons: because we hide our stuggles. The best thing to do if you need help is to go get it, as hard as that can be.

Just because people dont 'look' as though they are struggling doesnt mean that they are not. People cope in different ways, no two people are the same. Perhaps you need to talk to them and explain just how much you need help.
