After a long hospital stay, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in San Diego cost $80 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 $1,600 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,350 • Psychiatric assessment: $210 • Workbook and resources: $40 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

                          Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Badagry

                          • Wishing you the best, Isabelle. Hope you get there. We're a small family in San Diego but we're thinking of you.

                            • So sorry you're going through this, Isabelle. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Wish I lived closer to Jerusalem so I could bring a meal

                              • You're not alone, Isabelle. Hope this works out for you

                                • Good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 16 years in retail I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best.

                                  • Take care, Isabelle. Get well soon
