Backstory: I emailed my mom about my suspected seasonal affected disorder in Minnesota winter and how I was having trouble finding a therapist who was taking patients.

Depression seems to run in my family. Both my mom and I have had bouts of it. I was a bit unhappy at the holidays and have managed to pull out of it. Your uncle sent your father a case of merlot, so that always helps me. Is it the job situation? I have ordered a honey baked ham to be sent to your apartment, so keep an eye out. That should help you feel better!

Keep trying to find a therapist.

Best regards,
Paula
