After the loss of my brother, Alka has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at Pune Wellbeing Centre cost $10 each. Alka has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Alka could afford. The therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Alka, and we're 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 $210 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $150 • Psychiatric assessment: $55 • Workbook and resources: $5 Every share and every dollar helps. - Shilpa

  • Best of luck, Shilpa. Hope you get there. Blessings.

    • Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best

      • Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Sydney donated after I showed her your page.

          hope it all works out. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

          • Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Buffalo

            • Praying for you, Shilpa. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Houston.

              • Sending strength, Shilpa. Hope the doctors have good news. All the best.

                • Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Pune.

                  • Good luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My husband and I read this together. God bless

                    • keep going, Shilpa. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update.
