Suppose that, in comparison to another individual, you have your shit together. This individual may be an acquaintance who has struggled with life, may have mental issues, alcohol issues, or the like but never made a whole lot of progress.
More than once have I stayed out of the fray when people I know have gone through shit. Like Casablanca, "I stick my neck out for nobody." I don't expect help should I have difficulties and I'd feel worse if people I knew had to deal with it. A bit of Hedgehog's Dilemma.
Maybe the discussion will spur more thoughts
