3. Finding one is not the issue. (Possible Trigger Warning)

Paying for one is. And, they only offer the same options that are always offered. Basically, if you don't have money, you don't get decent care. You get a 'feel good' option that has no issue tossing pills down your throat but won't do much else.

Mental health is the most screwed up aspect of our healthcare system and it is because they don't want to admit to too much. If they do, then so many people would have a legitimate (in their eyes) reason for SSDI and other type things. The powers that be cannot accept that. So, they downplay it and offer insults disguised as 'help'. They don't want to help you. They want you to either go make them richer or go die. Period.
