text: When faced with a lot of stress, your decision making abilities may not be working as well as it usually does. In this case, you may not know what is best for yourself. Most of the time we don't know whats best for ourselves, but having multiple people to talk to can help us make better decisions. Other people may know what is best for you. When talking to more than one person about the problems/issues you're having, one of those people might not know much about your issues as much as the other person. Talking to multiple people may help you get more reliable information that can help you in your decision making process.
