You are valued. There are 1 helplines in Mongolia where you can confide in volunteers or counselors for support when you feel:

• Shame and sadness about becoming a burden to others.
• Stress about the financial burden that your illness will put on your family.
• Like a burden to friends or family, and no longer a valuable member of society.
• Loss of control and an intense feeling of helplessness in the face of your illness.
• That life isn’t worth living, given the limitations and pain associated with your medical condition.
• Isolated from those who don’t comprehend your discomfort or the seriousness of your condition.
• Fear that you'll be defined by your medical condition, instead of who you really are.
• Worry about the pain you'll feel, medical bills, death, and your family’s future happiness.

Reaching for support does not make you weak, helpless or incapable – it just means you’re human.
