Mental health and the holidays—not always the most wonderful time of the year

The Galveston County Daily News, December 8, 2022

“In my medical practice, I often meet with people who live alone and with little or no social support system,” wrote Dr. Victor S. Sierpina in this column. “They are geographically distanced from their families or estranged from their children or other loved ones. They often do not have a community of faith or participate in other social networks.” If you know anyone like that, send them a note, call them or take them some goodies. “Even a small drop of love and caring can be like a candle shining into the darkened corners of people’s lives. Be that light, even if you need to come out of your own corner to do it.”
