Eugene
After a car accident, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at Eugene Wellbeing Centre cost $85 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 10 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 $2,500 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $2,100 • Psychiatric assessment: $340 • Workbook and resources: $60 Thank you for reading my story.

    • any update on how things are going in Eugene?

      • hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

        • Thinking of you, Dolores. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Kampala but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Kampala.

          • hope things get better soon, Dolores. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Eugene.
