support system

This is my first post to my first blog and i am excited!! I have a lot going on in my life right now and im sure that everyone else does. The question today is, how do you get through a difficult time even though you have a great support system. I am an advocate for a support system and feel that they are the best things in the world, but right now even though i have one, i know that there are some things that i need to deal with myself. My support would do anything for me, but the question is how much should they do and how much should i do?
