Hello and welcome to Forever 35, a podcast about the things we do to take care of ourselves. I'm Dori

Shafrier. And I'm Elise Hugh, and we're just two friends who like to talk a lot about serums.

And this is a mini episode where we hear from you. We share your comments and your thoughts,

and we answer your questions to the best of our ability. But please remember, we are podcast hosts.

We are not experts. And we always encourage you to seek support first and foremost from a medical

and or mental health professional as needed.

I mean, especially with our president tweeting about the end of civilization and all,

I would imagine a lot of us should be seeking any mental support and emotional supports as

much as possible. Somebody was asking me how I was doing.

I was like, well, all things considered, hanging on.

Hang on.

Maris Kreiseman, who was on this show just last year, the author and literary critic,

Maris, she had posted some, she posted something on

threads or something like that about like, am I supposed to call my congressman to tell the,

I'm very upset about the end of civilization.

Totally.

Like, is that something we're supposed to have to do?

Right.

Yes.

Holy moly.

Yeah.

So just trying to.
