Honestly, if your symptoms are apparent, a psychiatrist might diagnose you pretty immediately.
Doesn’t make it free, of course, but it does mean you wouldn’t need regular sessions.
I was seeing a psychiatrist for a while, stopped for unrelated reasons, and now my med manager or primary doctor writes the prescriptions for my meds. I see a doctor once every 6 months, basically.
Now, I do have insurance, but for a minute I didn’t, and a visit cost about 200$, can’t remember exactly.
What if i don’t have insurance because i work for a small company that doesn’t have to provide it?

200$ every 6 months is fairly doable.
Good luck, though.
That is a very valid concern. Unfortunately I don’t have the answer you need.
