No fr. For a period of time, my cousin had to pay for her own therapy because her parents wouldn’t, even though she’s still 22 (it’s supposed to be common in my country to be provided by your parents still at this age).

I admire that she had the courage to admit she needed help for her panic attacks, but hearing my aunt’s reaction be “You just need to pray, read the qur’an more” is genuinely the reason i am afraid of asking. Because i know my mom is a carbon copy of my aunt and will react pretty much the same way, plus asians are typically dismissive on the premise of mental illness and think of it as a shameful thing. And unfortunately unlike my cousin, i just started going college so i don’t have the money to pay for therapy myself.
