My anxiety and depression has been crippling lately. I decided to talk to some friends to try and lift my mood and ended up helping tons of people.

I spent hours researching ways for my Turkish friend to immigrate to Europe and helped her through some mental health struggles. I then was talking to my friend in India who also wants to move and feels upset. Despite so many things going bad lately, I was actually able to feel good and useful. 

Does anyone else feel better when helping or comforting others?
