I never said a person with secure attachment would fear or hesitate to ask for help and yes they do feel safe in doing so because why wouldn't they when their needs have been met. They have no reason to fear abandonment or relying on or depending on anyone.

We all have different ideas about dependency. None are right or wrong they are just our impressions and opinions.
With attachment there are certain catagories/ molds/ types we belong to but dependency has been relatively unexplored so far.
Thanks for this!
