After a difficult divorce, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Lyon cost $70 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. The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record. Where the $1,100 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $840 • Psychiatric assessment: $220 • Workbook and resources: $40 I hope life is good to you. - Alassane

  • Wishing Alassane a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Zapopan.

    • Sending good thoughts, Alassane. Shared this with my family. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.

              Thank you. If you're in Lyon I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.

          • Thinking of you, Alassane. Shared this with my family. After 20 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

            • How is Alassane doing now?

              • Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too

                • So sorry you're going through this, Alassane. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.

                  • Sending good thoughts, Alassane. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care

                    • hang in there, Alassane. I hope things turn around soon. All the best

                        Hang in there, Alassane. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
