I’ve been reading “The Friendship Bench: How Fourteen Grandmothers Inspired a Mental Health Revolution”by Dixon Chibanda MD this weekend and learning how her idea for Friendship Benches that she started in Zimbabwe have now helped half a million people and counting get mental health help worldwide.
If you like nonfiction about mental health, you might like this book.

I attended my local #NoKings protest. It’s amazing that there was a local protest. Normally I’d have to schlep into Washington DC to find a protest, but this one was 3 miles away. In the suburbs. There were probably a few hundred people there. There was an overwhelming amount of support from cars driving by, from grandparents, to small kids, to bus drivers and truck drivers, and even a police officer. I left about an hour early and then had to sleep for a couple hours because I used too many #spoons to attend ( #chronicillness ). But it was worth it. Thank you to everyone across the country and around the world who participated!!
After the acts of terror by MAGA in Minnesota today I didn’t feel safe going to the Capitol protest, but I went to one in my small, white bread, homogenized, suburban town. There were probably 500+ protesters and hundreds and hundreds of cars honking. There are more of us than there are of them.
