text: Lastly, you should ask multiple people for their advice because it would be less stress on yourself for making a choice on your own. For instance, Generic_Name has been very depressed lately and is deciding if she should run away. She tells her friends at school and they give all their attention on her and tell her that it isnt right so she should stay. It helps Generic_Name a lot since she is not the only with the weight of that decision and she decides to stay because she trusts her friends. Eventually things turn around for her and she is back to her normal, happy self. Since she didnt have all that weight of her decision all to herself, she didnt feel as stressed. Another example, when Generic_Name's parents were getting a divorce she had to decide whether to live with her mom or dad. Its stressful enough that she has to choose between two people she loves. She asks multiple friends and some of her counselors about what she should do and each one of them help her out. Since she is getting help from so many people she feels less stressed about her decision making. Getting multiple opinions on something could make decision making less stressful.
