Mental health support for Khalid after years of caregiving

After years of caregiving, 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 11 months, and private sessions at the Peshawar 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 10 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 $150 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $100
• Psychiatric assessment: $35
• Workbook and resources: $15
Thank you for reading my story.

Thank you. If you're in Peshawar I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.

Wishing you peace, Khalid. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
