The masculine narrative goes something like "if you ask for help, you're too weak to achieve what you want and get your shit together by yourself"

I'd like to look at it from a different perspective. There's a lot we can reach on our own - but with a little push, we can do much greater things and end up being way better to ourselves and others. We also retain contact with society, combating narcissism and alienation that lets us down.

Wanna show how strong you are? You better not stand in the mud, then.

At the end of the day, it's the effect we cause on this world that matters, not whatever shit is in our heads. And for the former, you do need support.
