Legitimately, it’s one of sickest jokes about this country, that you can spend an hour with a therapist working on improving your mood, walk out of the session, and have it immediately undone when the receptionist tells you what the copay is.
This is so crazy to me. Many mental health places near me won‘t even take insurance. I got an estimate on getting tested for ADHD the other day at 5k. This was after the year wait to even hear back.
I lucked out and happen to be going for my Master‘s degree. The University had a trainee do it for only 500 usd. I have my suspicions the other place (with the quote) may be an extreme example, but it’s still insane
100% agree that it’s fucked up, but also you should check on if there’s some sort of a community counseling program. I know where I live they do community counseling and it’s sliding scale down to $5. I really wish that was more places
The price tag on that therapy, for one.

At that point, would going to mexico be better? I mean, goddamn, 5k. I got mine done for the equivalent of 500usd.

Those community counseling programs tend to be absolutely overwhelmed and have very long wait times.
