I predict this will be the longest letter section ever.
My two cents: since you (LW) don't have to worry about the day-to-day struggle to stay above water, take a goodly amount of time each week and volunteer. Help people who desperately need it. Giving to charity is good, but it takes only a few minutes of your time and almost no emotional investment. If you'd like to cure what ails you, give your *time* and some physical effort. And get to know some people who've been kicked in the teeth by life.
What I mean is that you're in a special position to fight the good fight. You don't have to struggle on behalf of yourself; fight on behalf of those who can't do it themselves. Get your hands dirty.
