Dear Joyce,
I don’t have health insurance for a psychologist since I thought that would be your answer. Help is needed, and the sooner the better.
Signed,
Hapless Stroke Survivor
Dear Hapless,
Don’t fret. I was going to suggest an impartial psychotherapist, but without insurance, I have other ideas, too. A licensed social worker is a close second to build up your self esteem and give your life worth where you won’t have thoughts “to end it all.” A member of the clergy would do as well. Please investigate your local hospital and see if they have services. Just recognizing your thoughts as a last-resort action shows that you know it’s not the way to go.
Best of luck, Hapless. And hopefully, the next time you write to me, perhaps you will sign Happy Stroke Survivor!
