Hah... I really don't know where to put this anywhere on the forum so I'm going to put it here seeing as it's already giong and half of the reason for posting it anyway is to kind of sort out my thoughts.

I finally got a call back from a local Therapy center, and I'm welcome to go in as a walk-in for an assessment or whatever. I'm kinda freaking out just a bit because well... I realized that even if the place is sliding scale, then they would still need insurance information. I was hoping that maybe I could go without either of my parents knowing. However seeing as I have absolutely no income of my own, and I certainly don't pay my own insurance...

I would have to talk to one of them. Even then, would Medicare or Blue Cross/Blue Shield cover that? I mean it's probably sliding scale so I don't have to worry as much... but I don't know last time I asked my mom if I could see a therapist she got upset and asked why we couldn't deal with it at home. Well I was able to sort out the problem that I wanted to go for, over 2 years... However I don't think I can deal with my mind alone anymore.

Edit: I finally got the information I was looking for! The insurance makes the therapy free, and then because of confidentiality, my mother never has to know I'm going unless I decide to tell her! Now I just have to figure out a schedule to go and not seem all suspicious-like.
