I came looking for this comment, as it was difficult for me to tell from the article what was actually wrong with this person. I am not sure why it’s being downvoted, then again I find claims of helplessness frustrating without a lengthy precise list of what has actually been attempted to resolve the issue. If a colleague claimed helplessness with a code bug I would ask what attempts had been made to fix the issue. Why would serious life issues be treated differently? If the colleague with a bug just started crying and vaguely claiming to have tried as much as they could I have to say I would not be impressed.
