I love that you care so much about others.
I think the best thing you can do for this person is to not feel sorry for them, and to show that you don’t feel sorry for them. Pity keeps people in an infinite loop of disempowerment, meanwhile, if you see the positive possibilities for someone, it can encourage them to see those too, if they are ready. Pity can even become a drug because people come to believe it's the only way they can receive love and support.
Focus on the positive aspects of them and show appreciation for those things.
If they don’t have a phone and you care that much maybe you can help them make an account together on your phone.
Just be careful, because sometimes your desire to help will backfire, as in the end, people will only be able to handle what they are ready for. If you push them to do things that they don’t want to do or don’t make boundaries, you may find yourself being taken advantage of or part of some unnecessary drama.
If you help them open an account, let me know. I will check it out
Yeah, you see right. And more reason why I was being careful about this.
On one side I was thinking of helping the person set up an account while I lend the person my device to make articles for some days the person will be chance and maybe I am not making use of the device for the time being, but I was also having a second thought about the implications and outcome of it all. What if it doesn't turn out right or as I expected? but if I arrive at something eventually, and help the person with the account set up, then sure I will let you know.
Thank you for willing to lend a hand.
