Oprah on "Weariness of Spirit" and When It's Time to Reach Out

CC
How do you know when it's time to ask for help? In 2004, Oprah made a crucial distinction between run-of-the-mill exhaustion and a deeper "weariness of spirit" that we must learn to recognize in others and ourselves before it's too late. She stressed that if you ever get to that point, you absolutely must reach out to others for help.

"That's the sign that you cannot do that alone," Oprah said. "The weariness of spirit is not something you can do by yourself."

Watch as Oprah makes her plea to anyone who might be in his or her darkest moment: Don't go it alone.
