Here's the thing. You NEED to talk with a mental health professional ASAP.
If your income is low, you qualify for Medicaid.
If you go to your local ER they will help you and they will hook you up with Medicaid. You will get hooked up with the medical/psychiatric system.
From your posts, I kind of doubt they'll hospitalize you BUT if you are hospitalized, it will almost surely be for 72 hours, or less. And that would probably be a good thing, because you can talk to a pdoc and get on meds. Believe me, they won't keep you in the hospital for more than a few days because it's too expensive for the government or for any insurance plan to keep people hospitalized.
I realize that your family is not being supportive. That sucks, but you still need to take care of yourself.

I got medicaid. I'm seeing my counselor Monday. Thank you for the help. I love my parents don't get me wrong. But I think I'm annoying the heck out of them because they got their own problems they need to worry about. I'm also thinking of changing my current medicine because I think it's doing me more harm than good. I just made a new post so you guys can go a head and delete it. I just asked about my depekote. It's been 7 weeks so far that I've been on the new dosage. I feel like crap. 250mg twice a day. I felt like I was forgetting stuff too during the day and recently. Can my medication be causing most of my issues? Sorry if I'm being a problem.

And I found out I have cognitive impairment disorder from my chart so idk if my meds are messing me up. I usually have pretty good memory. I havent slept well. Having a hard time concentrating being in the moment. So idk. Sorry guys.

I would also talk to my doctor about my problems. But he looks at me like I'm some sort of hypocondriac. And doesn't take me seriously. He just blames anxiety yet I do have GAD. I don't feel like eating and sleeping. And I've been dehydrated been drinking allot of water. So my doctor and everyone else thinks I'm making my self sick worrying too much..
