Two years ago, I came across a collection of dusty photos. I looked to see if there were any names on the backs. I thought: if these were mine, or my family’s, I’d want someone to return them to me. So I made it my goal to do so for others.
I’ve since visited secondhand shops weekly, and have collected more than 50,000 of these items such as photographs, memory cards and undeveloped films-everything you can name it.
I’ve also set up a social media account to help reunite items with their owners or other family members. The first item I posted was a tape of a family holiday. It was a video of two parents and a son of university age on a trip in the 90s—the son was wearing a T-shirt with the words “Wesleyan swimming” on it.
My social media followers contacted athletic departments in universities across the US and asked swimming coaches from the 90s if they recognised the student. After just a few days, someone identified him and we tracked him down on social media. He couldn’t believe it and was happy to be reunited with the tape.
People are often quite emotional when we get in touch-most of these items are lost after a house move or a family death. I found a box containing two rolls of film at a shop in New York. Inside the box was a note with the time 1943 and the name “Friedmann”. One of my followers found a family named Friedmann. They confirmed their ancestors that were in the photographs.
I have some rules. I should remove their posts if the family does not want their memories online. Every family has been grateful to have their memories back. Only a Martin family asked for all of their memories to be removed online. I removed it, but they were still extremely grateful to me for returning them.
I’d love to create a building to hold all these memories. I want every photo and every vide
o to be digitised so they can be preserved online. I’m bringing together a team to return the photos to their owners. People are very interested in the feelgood stories that come out of this and I do, too.

When he moved from South Africa to New York City, Norman Rosenthal noticed he felt more depressed during the cold, short days of the city’s winters than he had in his home country.
“It was an illness hiding in plain sight because people said ‘well, that’s how everyone feels in winter.’ They didn’t see it as treatable,” says Rosenthal, a world-famous researcher at Georgetown Medical School. In 1984, he published the first paper to scientifically name the winter blues-Seasonal affective disorder (SAD), also called seasonal depression. It was a type of depression brought on by the dark days of winter.
Mental health experts say there are solutions to treat SAD．The first treatment that may have longer lasting benefits is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT), a form of talk treatment that Rohan, a heath expert recommends for treating SAD．“Negative (消极的) thinking will produce negative emotions, and we want to change those into slightly less negative, more neutral (中立的) thoughts,” she says of the CBT approach. For example, “I hate winter.” might be replaced as “Winter isn’t my favorite season, but I still find things to enjoy.”
Finding wintertime hobbies may also help. “People with SAD often have hobbies and interests that are summer specific-growing gardens, beach going,” Rohan says. Instead of hibernating (冬眠) under a blanket, she suggests those people find indoor hobbies to enjoy-knitting, joining a book club or going to the gym. Exercising, learning ways to manage stress or planning a sunny vacation during the winter can all help to improve your mood.
Rosenthal stresses that there’s no reason to not seek mind health treatment, even if symptoms (症状) are only present for a few months out of the year.
