Antidepressants had completely stopped working in 2019. It took 2 years for me to find a counselor and because no one accepted my insurance I had to pay out of pocket. I wanted to see a psychiatrist to get an evaluation and to discuss other treatment options. That took another 3 years.

I don’t think people realize it’s hard. You’re trying to get the person that is best for you.
Yes and no. I do because I am having a hard time with my insurance or Medicaid.
I find the only thing that helps my mental health is God he helps me even through challenges I love hearing the stories in the bible and also people's testimonies as it reminds us that we are all Gods children and need him all the Disciples struggled and needed Jesus teaching aswell.
Job 23 Then Job replied:
2 “Even today my complaint is bitter;
his hand[a] is heavy in spite of[b] my groaning.
3 If only I knew where to find him;
if only I could go to his dwelling!
4 I would state my case before him
and fill my mouth with arguments.
5 I would find out what he would answer me, and consider what he would say to me.
6 Would he vigorously oppose me?
No, he would not press charges against me.
7 There the upright can establish their innocence before him, and there I would be delivered forever from my judge.
8 “But if I go to the east, he is not there; if I go to the west, I do not find him.
9 When he is at work in the north, I do not see him; when he turns to the south, I catch no glimpse of him.
10 But he knows the way that I take;
when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold.
11 My feet have closely followed his steps; I have kept to his way without turning aside.
12 I have not departed from the commands of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.
13 “But he stands alone, and who can oppose him? He does whatever he pleases.
14 He carries out his decree against me, and many such plans he still has in store.
15 That is why I am terrified before him;when I think of all this, I fear him.
16 God has made my heart faint;
the Almighty has terrified me.
17 Yet I am not silenced by the darkness, by the thick darkness that covers my face.
