After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Joliet Wellbeing Centre cost $85 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 10 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 $2,400 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $2,200 • Psychiatric assessment: $185 • Workbook and resources: $15 If you're reading this, thank you. - Cristian

          You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Mumbai this morning. Thinking of Joliet.

              I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Jakarta Barat.
