Does your college have a clinic? It's quite possible, if it does, that they would be able to give you the resources for the help you need. That is what they do best typically. Also, if you have a regular doctor, maybe start there with getting some names and then whittle it down to closest location, cost, and if they do a sliding fee where you can pay what you can pay and still go.
Just a couple of suggestions.
Kind regards
I guess I will just have to wait until I get a "real world" job. I'm in college in order to accomplish that. Maybe I can get some health insurance then and finally get therapy. Until then....*sigh*.
I'm 22 and I also worry that this is aging me faster.
I don't know where to turn to for financial help. At college, I know I make too much money to be considered for financial aid.
I know how it feels for your heart to be racing and you don'tknow why. Very scary. Although it seems so, a pulse rate of 120 is not all that high. I just had a baby, and during my pregnancy, my pulse always lingered arounf 100-110 (resting). You did mention that you work out alot, so for you that may be really high. Honestly, psychatrists and medication can be very expensive. I don't know where you live, but can you get assistance from the state? Thats a start. For now it seems you are on the right track.
I never took the lexapro. how much are psychiatry visits and meds? I wait tables and go to college...I have bills and stuff...and no medical insurance...can i afford this?
