Am I really an adult now?
Or is it all just a play?
I'm old enough
I should know enough
But what if time
And disastor
Repeats itself?
I couldn't handle it
Years ago
Being an adult
Growing up
I failed
And fell
Now, years later
can I do this?
Am I better now?
Wiser?
Or am I still that clingy
Stupid
Foolish
Lazy
Child
People offer hands
And I am grateful
But I am scared
Can I be helped?
This attention disorder
ADD
Blocking my mind
If they help me
Does that mean I'm being lazy?
Will I be dependent again?
Still a child, needing help?
Or will I be grown up
Standing
Moving on?
I don't know
And I'm scared
I may have mentioned before that I have adult ADD?
I'm so confused...
If my love, and my family, want to help me, and I let them, is that being lazy?
Or is it what I'm supposed to do?
I don't wanna be ungrateful...

It's not being lazy at all. Most everyone needs the support of others; it's when you constantly rely on them and expect them to do everything for you is being lazy.

You don't have to accept help if you don't want to. There's nothing really that you're 'supposed to do'. If you think then you can do it on your own, then go right ahead. Likewise, if you're unsure and need a guiding hand, that's what your family and friends are for.
