Is it "I appreciate the help from both yourself and Bob" Use of reflexive pronoun (you or "you and Bob"yourself)?

Given the choice in sentences:

  • I appreciate the help from both yourself and Bob.
  • I appreciate the help from both you and Bob.

Which is correct?

I'm stuck because I can't seem to understand reflective pronouns. Can "yourself" only be used when the subject is also "you"?

Is it "I appreciate the help from both yourself and Bob" or "you and Bob"?
