After a long hospital stay, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Mbale Wellbeing Centre 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 $255 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $210 • Psychiatric assessment: $40 • Workbook and resources: $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Mwangi

      Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings
