After a violent robbery, Opio has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Mwanza Counselling Collective cost $10 each. Opio has been honest with his employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Opio could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Opio, and we're 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: • 24 therapy sessions: $330 • Psychiatric assessment: $40 • Workbook and resources: $30 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Fatuma

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Opio.

      24 therapy sessions is $330 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.

    stay strong, Fatuma. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from El Paso.

    • Sending good thoughts, Fatuma. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours.

      • sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick

        • Stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 38 people at work. Take care.

            Hope the doctors have good news. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best

            • Keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Shreveport.

              • Keep going, Fatuma. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Tehuacán.
