What is the best way to get help with Trailhead?

I go through the lessons, but almost always have a problem I have to research, and it is hard to narrow things down.  What is the best way to not waste days trying to see why your work isn't working?  The examples usually are bits and pieces, and it would be very helpful to have access to completed, accurate, working code.

Hi, Suzi, I, too had problems with the Trailhead when I first started.  At first it caused me to doubt the quality of the exercise.  But over time, I have realized that often it helps for me to think through the way the challenge is being presented and to consider other ways it might be solved.  While that is a bit time consuming, I've realized, now that I am 30 badges in, that I am learning Salesforce more completely as a result of going back over my mistakes and trying to find a solution even when I'm frustrated.  I have also found that some modules do have a "helper" file that can be used when you are struggling a bit. Wishing you all the best.
