Mindy, I'm a 19 year old girl who is really struggling lately and you have truly been a role model and inspiration to me. From watching you as Kelly Kapoor on The Office (and literally loving every episode you ever wrote) to Mindy Lahiri on the Mindy Project, to reading your books and watching interviews I creepily feel like you're one of my besties and I just wanna let you know that your sense of humor and words of wisdom have really helped me get through a lot.

My question for you is: What was your biggest struggle during your late teens and early twenties and what little things/thoughts comforted you as you got through it?

Hopefully this doesn't get buried, but if you do read this, Mindy, I really can't thank you enough for being such an incredible role model to me.

Thank you so much for replying to me! I started screaming and crying and called my mom who was like "Are you okay? Are you taking your meds?" But really, that meant the world to me. I needed that. Thanks for confirming that you are the ultimate role model for girls like me. <3
