From Puppies to Panic: ASK ME ANYTHING
Answering readers' questions about mental health!

Are we saying "Happy Holidays" anymore? I don't know, dear subscribers. But I wish you an hour a day of reprieve, peace, and calm.
Things are rough and scary out there, which means that for many of us, things are even rougher and scarier inside. My plans to go away with my family have been canceled, and one of the tiniest members of my family (at only four months old) has COVID.
One thing we've all got in common is problems.
And today, after a call to readers to ASK ME ANYTHING, I'm bringing you answers.
They might be the wrong answers, but they're still answers.
At the very end, as a special treat, I share the best of the best advice "How to Live" readers have been given.
Today, it's all about YOU—the best subscribers on the planet.
My most profound insights don't go in the free version—they're distilled from my 27 years in therapy, decades of independent study, and work as a mental health advocate. These deeper dives are reserved for readers committed to going deeper.
