Asking for help is often seen as an act of weakness. However, if we look closely taking financial help like loans is encouraged, similarly seeking a doctor's help for medical reasons is also encouraged.
However, it's exactly the opposite in the case of wanting to seek mental health support.
You don't have to necessarily reach a stage where seeking mental health support is your last resort. Anyone at any given point can reach out to a mental health professional. In fact, doing so can prevent the severity of mental health issues that one might face in future. However, there are several factors that stop one from taking that step. Such as : what other people will think, my problem isn't big enough to seek support, talking to friends and family is equal to therapy etc.
