It's too bad so many people feel a stigma about asking for help. We should all be willing to ask for help - at work, with our personal lives, just about anything. People work best when they work together since we are basically social creatures.
Everyone needs someone to talk to. It could be about anything. That's why we have "best" friends. The Gallup organization has a survey for the health of a company that employees take (that's a very simplified explanation you can read about in a book First, Break All The Rules). One of the key 12 questions is I have a best friend at work. That doesn't mean your best from, but it does mean someone you trust that you can share stuff with.
When it gets beyond friends, you often need an objective person trained in listening. Their biggest job is helping you focus. That's why they ask so many questions.
Go for it...you've got nothing to lose and everything to gain!!
