Do you agree that a problem shared is a problem halved?

Question

I don`t!

Answer 1

it depends on how you take things some people are good at handling their emotions and dont have to talk it out, but others arnt so strong and have to half the problem with someone to feel they have control of it, and the weight is took of their shoulders,

me personally can handle it myself halfing it just makes me more upset.

Answer 2

maybe

Answer 3

Not on here trust me - a problem shared is a great oppotunity for somone to see your weakness!!

Keep it to yourself hunny - don't give them the chance xx

English Rose - I'd give you advice - log off! You self important opinionated weed!

Answer 4

Except if it's HIV.

Answer 5

Yes, I do...in fact, this has helped me mantain two and a half years of sobriety.  It depends on who you are sharing with though...people who can relate and want to help...or just for the sake of drama.  Then taking suggestions is KEY.  If you get good advice and don't heed it, then you are indeed a fool.

Answer 6

For, me yes. I always talk over my problems, its good to get opinions from others which you may not have considered. My family and friends all know me so well, they often come up with solutions that help.

I am glad that my family and friends are not the gossiping kind (unlike the above answerer, nor would they do the 'told you so' bit!

Answer 7

NO, but it could be relieved, and then you double the chances of finding a solution !

Answer 8

no i don't. it's rare people can offer me advice i dont already hold , most people complicate matters too much ..

and i agree with the frst lady about g0ssip .. idle gossip costs lives

Answer 9

it's  a good way of getting your private life gossipped about

Answer 10

No, but it may bring a solution.

Answer 11

its true

Answer 12

I do agree, but it must be with the right person.  I remember well my father when he gave advice, he never told me what to do.  It was always, if you do this ,that will happen, and if you do that ,this will happen.  I also found talking to the right person quite often the answer comes to you anyway. Surely everybody has somebody they can trust, if not is a silly world we live in.

Answer 13

Not really, it depends on the person you'll gonna share with, what sure is it lessens the pain inside  your heart cos you had express to someone who's willing to listen.

Answer 14

No, it means all your friends think you're a whinger.

Answer 15

No I believe a problem shared is an opportunity for whoever you told to gossip about you to other people and most likely say 'I told you so!' at the end!

Answer 16

If you are in a problem you will be always thinking of your probem.So if you have no solution you will be more disturb.That disturbance is not good for your health.Now to solve your problem only possible if you disscus with one of your good friend or with your parents.When two minds combine they start thinking about the solution.So you will get 50% relief only to share becouse you transfer your heart weight to some other one who are caring for you even if you see that person also become sad for you will feel little satisfication that you are not alone in this world some one caring for you too.May be that person will give you a good idea for the solution of your problem and you will be get rid of that problem.So you think who can solve or share your problem and then go and share.You will feel satisfication even 50% without solution.Keep smiling and enjoy your life becouse these are your enjoyment days.
