text: Although many people do ask for more opinions for feedback, what about the people that don't? Research found by the Virginia Department of Health has found out that those with depression, anxiety, and insomnia were 10 times less likely to ask for multiple opinions and advice. Due to over thinking, shyness, and embarrassment, they think they will only get negative feedback, which leads to them not even asking. This is another reason why depression is on the rise. People feel like they are trapped, that there is no one to help them, not even their close friends can help them. They are scared of getting judged and humiliated for asking for advice because they are scared of being wrong or appearing stupid. This is a common issue today that is still growing.
