Turned down from GHP Health insurance due to mental illness, So do I qualify for!

I'm a recent college graduate that works part time (technically full time hours in the summer), as tattoo artist at Six Flags theme park!. The pay is great, got promoted, but there's no health coverage since it isn't full time!. My health coverage under my parents stopped when I turned 22; about three years ago (I'm at the old age of 25 now)!. While looking for other work that's full time, I've applied for private insurance with GHP (Group Health Plan)!. I get a letter today finding out that my application was denied due to my health problems which is having anxiety/depression, and OCD!. I've also been on Effexor medication for the past four years for it!. According to GHP, I qualify for high risk pool and would have to pay a higher rate, so I'm guessing it's about $5000/month, I don't know hopefully I'm just exaggerating on that number !. It's like I'm being singled out and wonder if health insurance companies are afraid to approve me because I'm crazy and big fat liablility!. My parents said they could help me pay for the "high risk" insurance until I find a permanent job!. I told them that that was a bad option cause it would look like I'm lazy!. So screw that, I don't deserve their help, I'd rather go naked in order to save money!. I've held down my current job for years now and built an excellent reputation toward my boss and coworkers!. I even graduated college with Magna Laude Honors and have a pretty decent work resum
