After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Minneapolis 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 24 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 $1,850 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $1,650 • Psychiatric assessment: $170 • Workbook and resources: $30 If you're reading this, thank you.

    Thinking of you and your family. Hope the doctors have good news. Sent it to 35 people at work. Take care.

      wishing you the best, Emily. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

        Keep going, Emily. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Gliwice.
