Mental health support for Ishrat after the loss of my brother
After the loss of my brother, Ishrat has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $200.

After the loss of my brother, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Dhaka Counselling Collective cost $15 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 16 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 $200 goes:
• 16 therapy sessions: $150
• Psychiatric assessment: $35
• Workbook and resources: $15
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Dhaka.
wishing Ishrat a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Los Angeles.
Wishing you peace, Ishrat. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
Sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Love from Nashik.
Rooting for you, Ishrat. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.
