The waiting list to get mental health help is 4 months!!! I need help now! What !


Question: The waiting list to get mental health help is 4 months!!! I need help now! What do I do!?
I am severely depressed and maybe even bipolar!. I lost everything due to this illness!. My job, my home, my car!. I had to move back to a State, County, house that I hate and live with my Mom whom I love, but makes me even crazier than I already feel!.

This area sucks so much that when I called the only place in the county for a Doctor they told me that they have a waiting list that goes as far as March!. That doesn't help me at all!. I am so severely depressed that I cry constantly!. I can't get out of bed!. Something as small as taking a shower seems like climbing Mt!. Everest!. What can I do to get immediate attention!? Another big factor in this is that I don't have insurance!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Is there a Catholic Charities office anywhere near you!? (don't have to be catholic to use them!) They have many services and can be free too!. One book I remember reading a few yrs ago!.!.!."Why your life sucks and what you can do about it" by Alan Cohen!.!.!.can get you thinking differently if you can find bits that work for you!. Also can you or someone rent you some movies that at least distract you!? Harry Potter, or some comedies!? Something that can offer you a little relief from where you are now!.
