text: First, you need to understand why going to multiple people is a good idea. You can learn a lot not just about yourself but about the person you are getting advice from. Maybe your parents are having a divorce and you go to your friend for advice on how to deal with that and he or she explains that their parents divorces and how they dealt with that. You can get yourself to tell other people your full story because sometimes you might be embarrassed by your story but telling them the whole story would be beneficial and by doing that you can get better advice because the person you go to are fully understanding what is actually happening and you can receive a better response on what to do. You will be getting different opinions on how to deal with things but I think this is a good thing because you choose which outcome you want. When you go to get advice what that means in my head is your looking for different opinions on things because you cannot think about what to do. It is important you do not go to someone who does not know you. You will also be asked different questions by these multiple people so you can articulate your point better.
