🇩🇪 Berlin, Berlin, Germany3,388 views
After the miscarriage, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Berlin 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 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 $2,200 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $1,950
• Psychiatric assessment: $195
• Workbook and resources: $55
If you're reading this, thank you.

Best of luck, Marlene. Wishing Marlene a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up. Thinking of Berlin.
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Kasarani.
You're not alone, Marlene. Get well soon. All the best.
So sorry you're going through this, Marlene. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings
Hope things get better soon, Marlene. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together!
Rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Quezon City!
