Hello & Welcome, Vinyltap. Thank you for posting!

In most cases your path to help begins with a primary/family doctor. They treat you or give you a referral to specialists - psychiatrists and/or therapists. You may be able to approach a private therapist directly.

Goodness, anything might be possible, but I'm unaware of examples of people directly approaching psychiatrists.

Why did you cease meds in the past? Did they not help? Side effects?

I'm sorry about the unsupportive family. You don't need that drama. Detachment from the unhelpful is not all negative.

Please make yourself at home.
