i am a subscriber, Dan. i regret i cannot help financially. I have been treated for mild depression for many years by my local physician/ Using medication but not "talk therapy" that was essential at the begining of treatment. I rely on my female friends for advice and feedback.

Your columns about growing up with numerous challenges were courageous and inspiring. I hope the process of writing of your survival, helped you find the strength you need for each day. And perhaps there will financial help for you from sources you do not yet know about.

Keep on writing, for those of us who have walked in similar shoes.

Jean, thank you for your kind note. The appeal is only to those who can, not an effort to add to the troubles of those who cannot. I appreciate your readership and wish you well, fellow traveller.

very sorry about the difficult time you are going thru. I have read your columns for years. I also have a weight problem and depression Medicine has helped with my depression. If I sign up for your column will you be able to use that money.

Oh, sure. Substack gets a cut, but I feel better about it when people subscribe because at least they're getting something back from me. But if you want to use one of the other ways to reach out, by all means. And, you don't have to do anything. Thank you for thinking of me.
