wanted to share a poem I wrote
#18
Yes, I agree.

You know, it's documented that people are able to 'pull themselves' out of depression (even once heard about someone coming out on top of schizophrenia) by getting involved in altruistic organizations. Anything that brings a person joy will do: Habitate for Humanity, advocacy for foster children, food banks ... . Really, doing any altruistic act one finds interesting will do the trick.

So, it's really a win-win situation: The receiver of the altruistic act gets the help he needs, while the giver receives a strong emotional boost.

And, best of all, this sounds like something right up your alley.
