After a long hospital stay, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in San Diego cost $140 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 12 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 $2,400 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $2,000 • Psychiatric assessment: $350 • Workbook and resources: $50 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Wishing you peace, Howard. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

      Best of luck, Howard. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 29 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

      • Gbenga Chukwuemeka Nnamdi

        Keep going, Howard. Wishing Howard a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best
