i have a kind tricky question. ive recently come to terms with depression as a reality in my life, but im not currently getting treatment for it. the main reason for this is that i dont have any insurance, and i dont have any money to speak of. i really need some help, but i dont know what to do. does anyone have any ideas?

Have you looked into your County Mental Health Clinics? They usually go on a sliding scale for payments.

Hope you feel better soon.

Take care,

"It is not easy to live life sometimes and face the world with a smile when you're crying inside. It takes a lot of courage to reach down inside yourself, hold on to that strength that's still there, and know that tomorrow is a new day with new possibilities. But if you can hold on long enough to see this through, you'll come out a new person - stonger, with more understanding and with new pride in yourself from knowing you made it" Kathy Obara

Hi Frumpy!!

Just wanted to add my welcome!! Laura gave you some good advice. You could also check with your church leadership, sometimes they have good referrals too.

Blessings!

Yu can either call your local Health care & rehab Service in your county and I believe the sessions are free. Happy hunting.

"Lefty"

There is no such word as can't. Can't simply means wouln't. Grab as much as life as you can. Future is a long way away for those who don't believe. Don't build a foundation of life on sand. It will take it away with the tide. Love a little more, be unkind a lot less.

Keep us posted on how you are doing please.

We can respond to irritation with a smile instead of scowl, or by giving warm praise instead of icy indifference. By our being understanding instead of abrupt, others, in turn, may decide to hold on a little longer rather than to give way. Love, patience, and meekness can be just as contagious as rudeness and crudeness.
