After military deployment, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Chennai cost $20 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.
The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record.
Where the $200 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $140
• Psychiatric assessment: $55
• Workbook and resources: $5
Thank you for reading my story.

How is Santhosh doing now?
Hope this works out for you. Love from Södertälje.
Rooting for you, Santhosh. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
thanks for sharing this. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours.
is 10 therapy sessions the biggest cost or is there more coming?
Sending strength. Hope you get there. God bless
you're not alone, Santhosh. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Chennai
Rooting for you, Santhosh. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 20 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
good luck, Santhosh. Shared this with my family.
Sending good thoughts. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Quezon City so I could bring a meal.
