Adama
After bullying at school, Nebiyu has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Adama Counselling Collective cost $10 each. Nebiyu 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 Nebiyu could afford. The therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Nebiyu, 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 $215 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $175 • Psychiatric assessment: $35 • Workbook and resources: $5 I hope life is good to you. - Selam

  • Best of luck, Selam. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
