Letter to the Editor: Mental health

Dear Editor:

Thank you Alex Dominguez for such an enlightening article on anxiety and depression. It was touching as well as educational.

He shared such specific and personal symptoms that he has dealt with which, in my opinion, was courageous and selfless.

In addition to the hotlines he mentioned for those in crisis, I want to recommend NAMI, National Alliance for Mental Illness. They have chapters in most communities and offer classes for family and friends that want to understand mental illness and better support a loved one.

Thank you again for using your talent as a journalist to promote awareness on this very important issue.
