Remember: don't stay alone if you have problems.
You don't have to do it here, but find another human being and talk with him.

Yes, please reach out to anyone nearby who will listen. Try a few people and don't get discouraged if someone doesn't listen, there are a range of responses people have to other people's worries. Some of us are great at it, others not so much. So please keep trying till you find someone.

The basic contradiction if human nature is that we are terrible at noticing that others need help, but at the same time we are ready to do whatever is necessary when we finally notice it
