Onitsha
After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Onitsha Wellbeing Centre cost $15 each. I have been honest with my employer and taken some time off, but I can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions I could afford. My therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and I know that consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part, and I'm grateful for your kindness without judgment. The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record. Where the $400 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $310 • Psychiatric assessment: $60 • Workbook and resources: $30 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Take care. Shared this with my family. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.

    • Rooting for you. Wishing Adewale a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Put this on a community board in Nairobi this morning. God bless.

      • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Adewale!

        • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 12 therapy sessions comes first ($310) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for looking so closely.

      • shared this with my family. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Zaria!

        • Thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Onitsha

          • Hope the doctors have good news. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
