It's nice to be needed, but it's healthier to be valued.
Being needed creates dependence: people are helpless without us, so it becomes difficult to say no.
Being valued maintains independence: there's no pressure to say yes. Helping becomes a choice, not a chore.

Support everyone. Every brain is different, just be kind. Be aware.
