10+ Redditors Share Their Epic "I'll Do It Myself" Moments

They say that no man is an island. At one point or another in our lives, we need the help or companionship of someone.

Whether it's at work or while handling personal issues, we cannot always go through life alone. Doing so only places all the stress on us, which can distance us further from the solutions we seek.

However, we must also learn how to stand on our own. It's how we can live as decent and helpful members of the community.

It's also how we can carve our own path in life. If we don't learn to stand on our own, we risk becoming too dependent on others and becoming a burden.

There are times, however, when we are forced to do something on our own because we either aren't receiving the help we need or the people who are supposed to assist us aren't paying us any mind. In those moments, many of us might say, "Forget it, I'll do it myself."

On Reddit, user Djwhat6 asked what led other Redditors to experience this moment themselves, and we can say that their answers are quite interesting. In fact, many of us can relate to a lot of them.

While help is much appreciated in some situations, there are times when all we can do is pick ourselves up and just do it because if not us, then who will? We can't keep waiting around, especially if the matter involves our own lives.

Sometimes, we just have to take the initiative, even though it can be annoying.
