Do you rely on your own strength? [I Ask]

Or that of others?

I really don't feel very strong, all the time...(tendonitis in my right wrist and a weak and painful hand because of that). So, because I can't really rely on other people, I googled how to open jars that won't open, (a pair of rubber kitchen gloves!), and I use dollies and carts to carry things that are beyond me. Then I use my legs to push or kick things that are so heavy they would injure my back.

I have found that preparation in advance really helps. I just tucked a 21 and 1/2 lb turkey into the oven, and I didn't even need my wrist brace!

The question is purely situational. For most of my life I have relied on my own physical strength to overcome mass or things related to it.
In terms of mental strength, my thought is that, [i]that[/i] all began at the knee of my parents. "Train up a child..."

@SW-User in the end. You only have yourself. Build upon your strength so you never have to rely on anyone again

@SolGryn True"

@SW-User yep
Yeah most of the time. Sometimes when I need to talk things out, I would bottle it in which would makes things worse so I would just talk in out. Sometimes I want to give up, but I tell myself to keep trying. I was taught to finish what I start and get it together. Gotta be tough.

@CraftyMarieArts build upon your own strength and what other tell you will no longer matter
@SolGryn So true

@ABCDEF7 true strength is in oneself

I do rely on my strength but when I have panic attacks I feel powerless and rely on my family to show me support.

@assemblingaknob I wish you the best with that. ;)
