The human mind is something strange and it can be difficult to understand how someone, or yourself, feels about something and cause them, or you, not know what else you could do to help.
Fear can cause someone to not do something they desperately want or need to do, especially if the events are moving to fast for them to understand and makes them panic, sometimes even leading them to worry too much if it's their fault that they couldn't help.
