How much does it cost or is it covered by insurance ( the visit + medication) I’m 17 and i doubt my mom would want to pay for it.
It all depends on your insurance. I had to go to the doctor first and get a referral to go to a therapist. My insurance paid for a certain amount of visit a year, but each insurance policy is different. Also, you’re assuming that your mom wouldn’t want to pay. Talk to her, let her know what the problem is, let her know why you want to get help, you’re assumption could be wrong. I started out telling my mom by making a list of “symptoms”. I then, not telling my mom what this was about, asked her to answer yes or no about if the the things on the list describe me.
