It is better to be self dependent rather being the burden on others specially when it is so not necessary.
Needing people's help constantly is not a healthy habit. To some extent it reduces the amount of respect one is accorded.
Being self dependent is key, while we may need help sometimes, it shouldn't be all the time.
exactly agree, I have been dependent on myself since early years of my life, which made me write this article.
Same goes for me too. I learnt to be self dependent very early in life, to the extent that I find it hard to ask for help when I really need it. I'm just used to handling myself.
