After military deployment, Romeo has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Bacoor cost $10 each.
Romeo 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 Romeo could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Romeo, 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:
• 16 therapy sessions: $330
• Psychiatric assessment: $40
• Workbook and resources: $30
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone, Leo. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Good luck, Leo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Best of luck, Leo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 30 years in customer support I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best
thinking of you, Leo. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Tamale.
