Definitely go to your state health department!  At least you are seeking help for your mental health issues! If they cannot provide you with benefits (which they should), they will likely be able to guide you to an agency that would be able to help. I wish you the best!!!

Contact your VA office in the area. If the person is a Veteran and need of health care it is a possiblity that he can recieve it that being he can not afford it or whatever the case may be.

If you are ill,go straight to the county hospital. If not , the county hospital is still a great source for information to get you health care services, ask for the social workers. The phone book, find Human Resources,Call the office closest to you.Tell them what your situation is,and ask them What programs are available? Also ask about local churches,community support programs(united way) Depending upon your age, You could be eligible for Medicare,or medicaid, Medicaid spin downs etc. Depending on your health concerns,You could be eligible to participate in a clinical trial. The best tool you have is asking questions,No matter who you speak with and even if their program can not help, ALWAYS ASK IF THEY KNOW OF ANY PROGRAMS,COUNTY,STATE,OR LOCAL SERVICES,who may be able to offer you assistance or information.Keep your spiral notebook and a good pencil at hand at all times. Good Hunting !

When I lived in Portland, Oregon, at Denver and Lombard there is a tavern called the farmers barn tavern if you go  there, you will find everybody is crazier than you are and for the price of a couple of beers.  It's well worth the investment and if that's not your cup of tea.  Look in the book, Multnomah County adult mental services.  I believe the service is free for low income individuals.  Good luck and I hope all is well

I would check on line first to see if there were any thing there for free to at least help out some.  Sometimes there are clinics that will work with you on payments as well.

Check with the insurance carrier, United Behavioral Health.  They would most likely have a listing of providers who accept their insurance coverage for specific areas.

Very much depends where you live.\nIn some countries, medical services and support are paid for by the state, so everyhting that you need will be provided.\nIn others , you have to pay for your own care or have insurance...   which tends to run out after a while.\n\nProbably best to look for counselling and support groups in your own aree, who will be able to advise you further.

Sorry to hear of your problem.  I don't know exactly what help you mat need but assistance with meds can be found at this website:\nhttps://www.pparx.org/Intro.php\nAs far as assistance with seeing a doctor or other medical care, check with local health departmants, clinics and even hospitals.  Many hospitals and some private doctors have programs to help low income people to recieve treatment for little or no cost.  Many times a chaplans office inthe hospital is a great place to start.  If you are of low income I would also check with Social Security, State and local health  departments and social service organizations like St. Vincent DePaul or the Salvation Army. I wish you luck and hope this might help.

I'd start with a local community mental health agency. These are generally big counseling centers that set their fee's on a sliding scale. Meaning you pay as much as you can afford (sometimes free). I recommend this not b/c I think you are crazy but because of the resources and personel they usually have. You can get hooked up with a counselor, doctors and most importantly a social worker who can help you get started on medicaid and disability.

Well if you are looking for live support check the mental health section in your city or county and they will be able to tell you where to find one. There is one very good site that I know of online and I will place the link below. Give it a try the forum is run very smoothly and the site is taken care of my pyschologist.

Try looking in the Government Section of your local phone book.  Check for County Mental Health.  Many counties in the Country offer Mental Health Services for eveyone on a 'pay as you can' basis.  Good Luck.

Hi Paige -  I'm sorry to hear about your hard times with your brother.  If your brother isn't willing to accept help, you may not have too many options.  I don't know where you live, but if there is a dept.  of Social Services near you, he can seek help through them, as long as he meets their criteria.  It's usually a good place to start.  Without insurance, it is very difficult to obtain treatment elsewhere.  I have spent many years helping people find treatment in New York State, so i may be able to help you further if you want to give me more info.  Good luck and stay strong.

depends on where you go.  If you have no insurance or have low income, there are probably free or subsidized clinics you can get to.  Don't know your location, so you can do a search on the web.  Just be sure to get medical attention as soon as you can - it will be quicker to take care of now then to wait and let complications set in.

If you're in California:\nCall the San Bernardino County MediCal Dept., and they'll help get you started.  Every state provides some form of  federal assistance that is based on your income; they're just called different names.....(in OH, it's called 'Medicaid').\n\nHope this helps you.\nSmartycat

Probably. Here in New Mexico we have an agency called protective Services. You might try local Mental Health office.
