It seems to me that EVERYBODY is doing their best. "Best" changes, moment by moment, even. I'm confused as to why you are so reactive to the concept of asking for and getting help? I had to work for years to even grasp the concept. I'm still not good at it and my life suffers for that lack of ability.
For me asking for help is a sign of healing and taking care of oneself. I applaud the askers, good job y'all, keep taking care!
