After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Nagpur Wellbeing Centre cost $10 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 16 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:
• 16 therapy sessions: $320
• Psychiatric assessment: $45
• Workbook and resources: $35
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Stay strong, Shafiq. I hope things turn around soon. Blessings.
Wishing you the best, Shafiq. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless
