When you have a problem...Ask Mammy!

Written by Ruth Ruane

There is something about Agony Aunts that draws people to them.

I think it's that feeling of "I'm not alone" or "at least I don't have that to worry about" or maybe it's just some nosy fascination with other peoples lives.

There is a website that you just have to go and visit. It's called Ask Mammy. There is a very special Mammy at the controls. I know because I met her face to face. She has a kind heart and is a great listener. She has an open mind and never judges anyone. It's just open arms and an understanding ear.

Ask Mammy has a section where you can email her if you have a personal problem of any kind. The topics are Mind, Body, Spirit, Career, Family, Relationships, Practical. You can read problems that have been published, using fictional names of course. There is a forum where everybody shares. There is an articles section with some very interesting reading, for example Meditation, Staying Sane, One Baby Step at a Time, Let Go, and Claiming Your Dream.
