I am having a hard time finding help for depression and I don't have medical insurance. I don't qualify for any kind of assistance and I feel like it is getting worse. The state of MD is very limited in resources for uninsured people. I think i may need to be committed but i can't find help. what can i do?
sorry to hear that here were i live they are really good about helping..keep chin up and keep going answers will come to ya when u least expect
The health department is the only option but the wait list is very long.
do you guys have a clinic that offers sliding fees..ask your health clinic about this or your mental health care provider
Well, that is my main problem. I do not have a doctor thanks to losing my job and I don't have any health insurance. The waiting list to be seen through the health department is very long.
Get your doctor to refer you to a psychiatrist. Their job is to get you on the right meds. Each visit is about $100 but they only see you every couple months. Once you are doing well, then about twice a year. Regular doctors just prescribe the more common medications and often times, this is not enough. Psychiatrists specialize in the human mind. Good luck to you.
