i agree to not get a loan to pay for treatment. i don't know how the environment og Massachusetts is but here in Texas they have lots of free support groups for different mental health problems. they also have a company named MHMR which is a government owned company that helps people with low or no income receive free care such has doctors appt, medications and therapy! trust me when i say this. loans will never be your best friend!! i am finally paying off all my debt I've had for almost four years now.
No, look for places that are in network. I still use the app to connect with others, but I was in the same spot as you. I was able to find a therapist that’s in network with my insurance and he’s awesome.
You will save more money, and look for therapist who has experience with ocd and anything else that you would want to work on for yourself.
New to this community. Pretty bummed they don’t take my insurance. I’m gonna have a free call session later today but after that, I don’t know where else I’m gonna find online therapy specific to my ocd. I guess if it’s affordable I can still pay. It depends. It just sucks because I was happy to find this community and to finally get some help but they don’t take my insurance. I just want help.
Hi everybody! I started with a therapist who’s super pricey outside of NOCD, when I had mentioned that I’m struggling with OCD she didn’t seem too well versed she said oh so you’re struggling with intrusive thoughts? Lady you don’t know the half of it!! But I’m afraid of continuing because I don’t want to waste $180 a week for what is sold as someone who can treat and help with OCD then turns out to just be talking about stuff I’ve already talked about with past therapists! Anyway onto the question at hand! If I join NOCD and they don’t cover my insurance but I pay out of pocket fora real OCD/ERP specialist because I really need the help! Is NOCD going to help me? Or am I going to waste my time and should I keep trying my hardest to find ERP specialists on Google. I’m exhausted I just want to know I’m going to get help and relief from this before I put more money into therapy Any advice or honesty would help greatly! ❤️👈🏼
I tried contacting NOCD, but they said that they didn't accept my insurance, and even if they did, I'd have to provide co-payment. I felt devastated because I'm afraid of going to a therapist who will misunderstand me. I can't afford therapy at the moment but I might be able to in a few months. Are there any alternatives for self therapy?
