Question: Suggestions for a cousin that is depressed? I want to send you a care package but don't know what?
Answers:
Orchid, consider calling/e-mailing your cousin and find out what she would like best. If you want to make it a surprise, perhaps you can find out from someone else in her reserve unit or talk to someone from the USO (see USO.org) - they help out with people in the military. I think what you are doing is very kind-hearted and patriotic; we need more people like you, Orchid. Peace.
Chocolate. It triggers the release of seratonin (the happy hormone) and can make a person feel slightly happier.
Also, if there is anything that she particularly likes, or maybe something that could trigger a happy memory between the two of you then that would be perfect.
