After the death of both parents, Joseph has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Erie Wellbeing Centre cost $70 each. Joseph has been honest with his employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Joseph could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Joseph, and we're 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 $2,100 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $1,850 • Psychiatric assessment: $220 • Workbook and resources: $30 Thanks for reading all this.

        • Rooting for you, Ethan. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Juiz de Fora.

          • Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Tamale.
