okay there is a few different things you can try. I have been in the same situation before:

-Go to your local DES office and apply for healthcare

-call the suicide hotline to get a refferal to a local agency that will give you psych meds (they do that)

-Call the National Alliance on Mental Illness

I hope this helps...I have more resources if you need. Sorry I took so long to respond.
