Dear Joy:

The “Dear Abby” column by Abigail Van Buren in The San Francisco Chronicle

It's late, you're tired, you should be asleep- but you just can't seem to relax. The same problem you've been pondering on the bus, in the canteen, in the shower, on the street - it's still on your mind. You've pestered your friends, posed it to your parents, and posted it on your story. You could say it's causing you …. Agony.

Welcome to Two4Joy’s Agony Aunt series. From Princess Mysteria’s 1920s correspondence to the contemporary “Dear Dolly” column, agony aunts have been providing advice (and a fun read!) for decades. Whether you've exhausted your trusted confidants or can't bring yourself to badger them, consider us your new favourite friend. When a submission is received, we’ll post your question with an attentive answer fit to relieve any kind of agony.

Submissions will be entirely anonymous (unless you decide otherwise) and can be submitted via this link. Have something to say? Not to worry: relief to your agony is as simple as……….. Dear Joy:
