After the miscarriage, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Aurangabad 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 24 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 $400 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $340 • Psychiatric assessment: $50 • Workbook and resources: $10 Thank you so much. - Shima

    Thinking of you and your family, Shima. 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!
