Fernando is working through years of caregiving and needs help paying for 20 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇲🇽 Zapopan, Jalisco, Mexico1,443 views
After years of caregiving, 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 8 months, and private sessions at Zapopan Wellbeing Centre cost $35 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 20 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.
Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable.
Where the $600 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $500
• Psychiatric assessment: $75
• Workbook and resources: $25
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

it takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Zapopan
stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Thinking of you, Fernando. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 23 people at work. Love from Salem
keep going. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings
Hang in there, Fernando. Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Zapopan.
