Woody, I just wanted to say thanks for Mail Monday, it's made a HUGE impact on my life. Here comes a wall of text.

Before I watched Mail Monday, my entire family was on anti-anxiety medication, except for my dad, who held a high job as a CEO. I wasn't really effected, until my sister was 5 minutes away from being checked in to a Mental Health Center, after calling a suicide hotline and talking for hours upon hours. I, meanwhile, was babysitting some kids that their parents had dropped off while they eat out with mine. After hearing all this from my sister, I panicked. I was scared. I didn't really know what to do, so I turned my head, focused on my grades, and helped her whenever I could. A bit after that, my dad lost his job, thanks to some guy the company had brought in. He was on a contract for awhile, and that was probably one of the greatest summers I had ever had, but when school came back, and middle school started, the nightmares reappeared. To anyone reading this, things don't always go away right away. That was then.

This is now. He holds a better, steadier, cooler job, where he works from home (hence the constant travelling, which is fine compared to the other job). After before, being a wallflower for so long, I'm sprouted out. I might not be the most popular guy in my school, but I'm happier. So is my sister, who is a great person, and for once, I'm truly happy. This is all thanks to Mail Monday. For instance, this Friday, I'm going on a date with one of the top girls in my school. She doesn't care how popular I am, but instead, she likes me. Most people complain about not being with anyone, this is my first girlfriend, and I'm almost in high school.

tl;dr, Thanks Woody.

Also, if it helps as a story, could you try to fit this into Mail Monday? I've always liked it when you do a follow-up, or a life story.

Wow, I've been following this on CNN. Scary stuff. Would you give us some proof, i.e. A street sign with a "Hi Reddit!" note? Or a picture of a bill with all information blocked out, except for a street and date, with a "Hi Reddit!" note. Thanks.
