Question by Megan: What to do when you literally can’t afford therapy?
I know I have at least one mental health problem. I’m not sure what, I have symptoms of depression, anxiety, paranoid personality disorder, and OCD, but I’ve never been able to be diagnosed because I can’t afford therapy and neither can my parents.

I’m 19 and living at home. There are a few therapists in my area that take my parents’ health insurance, but there is still a $ 50 copay for each visit, which doesn’t sound like a lot, but my parents literally can’t afford anything other than their bills right now. I don’t have a “real job” right now (I do babysit) because it’s impossible to get a job with no relevant experience around here, and even when I do find one, I have to save up for college. So I can’t pay for it. I haven’t even told my parents that I want to get therapy, because they’ll just laugh at me and tell me to get over it, but I know they can’t pay for it anyway.
