After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at the Southampton Counselling Collective cost $55 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 12 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 $1,500 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $1,250 • Psychiatric assessment: $230 • Workbook and resources: $20 With deep gratitude, Aurora

      Rooting for you, Aurora. Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

      • Good luck, Aurora. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Love from Québec

              Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Southampton.

              • stay strong, Aurora. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Southampton.

                • Good luck. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
