“Dear PoPville,
My husband has been dealing with mental health issues for most of his life. About a year and a half ago we were able to get him on some meds. It’s not enough though. He, and I, need someone to talk to and real professional help. He’s seen a few doctors over the years and their solutions have varied from unhelpful to just ignoring his pleas for help. I’ve reached out to countless therapists over the last six months and either been ignored or put on wait lists to no avail. The pandemic has made all of this worse and I’m very scared for him. We can’t manage to find help, even in this big city. Does anyone have any recommendations on therapists taking new patients, doing telemedicine or other resources? No, he will not use something like Crisis Textline or headspace. I am at a loss, and utterly dismayed at how impossible getting help for mental health has been. It’s all made to seem simple – that asking for help is the hard part… we are past that though and screaming for help but no one is listening. Can anyone help?“

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
