I've decided I should probably reach out after suffering more than usual for almost a straight year. The things I've been working on to improve my mental health are helping a little, but it's not enough.
I'd like to hear from the community about effectiveness and cost. I don't have health insurance, so it's all out of pocket
That's good advice. I should see if I can find a leftist therapist. A small part of what I'm going through could be called "political/economic climate anxiety" or something.
I have a tendency to carry the weight of the world on my shoulders, and as we all know here, it's so much worse when you're a leftist.
I don't want to have to argue my lived experience with someone who makes in a day what I make in a week, and have them tell me its irrational the way I feel.
