Things will not improve until you're willing to change

One thing I don't miss when I was living in my country is when family, relatives, neighbours, friends and even customers (I was a computer technician) would call on me, crying, complaining, acting all desperate, asking for my help... but just ending up wasting my bloody time. Things would go like this: "Oh please help me, I have this disease, and I'm in pain, and doctors can't help me, and you said once that you had the same and you cured it..." (apparently, I had such a long list of common chronic diseases, that what everybody else has, I had it. ) "Oh please tell me what to do, I'm desperate, I'll do ANYTHING!" Of course, since I knew most of them, and had plenty of experience with this, in the back of my mind I was like "no you won't, but I'm gonna try anyways". So like an idiot I go overboard, I tell them exactly what I did, what I took, what I stopped doing, how long it took, and I even went as far as buy all the herbs etc for them, just so that I don't have to hear the excuse "oh but you know, I can't afford it". The truth is, if you're not willing to make the necessary changes and sacrifices, nothing will improve. If your doctor comes and tells you (like they've told me a million times over the years) "I don't know, I can't help you, there's no cure for what you have", then you can't just quit, or expect a miracle pill that you can just take once and be done with it. You have to do your research, trial and error, be a little open minded and work on it. A tiny example: A woman begs for my "secret" on how I cured my PCOS and infertility, since she had the same diagnosis and symptoms, I started explaining to her first how to clean up her diet and she cut me off by saying "oh no I'm more interested in knowing what you took". I'm like, ok, so I give her (for free of course) a bag of seeds that I made tea from. I took 4 cups of it every single day religiously for a year. She thanked me and I left. A month later I went to check up on her. She says "yeah I tried it once, didn't like the taste, so I decided this is not for me, I went back to the hormones". Of course things like this kept going on and on (apparently I knew a lot of sick people lol), and I would always go out of my way to offer my help to whoever asked for it, but it always ended with me asking: "why did you call me then if you're not willing to do anything about it? What did you think I was gonna say? Sure, keep eating all the crap you want, DON'T take whatever can cure you, in fact change absolutely nothing and I would just "abra cadabra" the disease out of ya?" Maybe they did think I was a witch.
