After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Makati 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 20 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 $550 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $490
• Psychiatric assessment: $45
• Workbook and resources: $15
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Praying for you, Trisha. I hope things turn around soon.
Rooting for you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
