The hurdles people have to go through to get mental health care in the US are not helping. Even with health insurance. Have you ever tried to find a decent therapist or psychiatrist through your insurance? What a disaster.
I’m sorry, this therapist moved/closed and I have no idea why they’re still listed by your insurer.
I’m sorry, this therapist no longer takes your insurance/never took this insurance. I have no idea why they’re still listed by your insurance
I’m sorry, this doctor is no longer taking new patients.
I’m sorry, this doctor didn’t bother to show up for your appointment and the office is closed. Guess that’s what happens when your insurer only works with the lowest bidder.
I’m sorry, this doctor sucks/is a crackpot. Guess that’s what happens when your insurer only works with the lowest bidder.
So glad to finally see some proof this isn’t just me. I have insurance, it covers therapy; I tried for 2 years to see a therapist, and every single time it would be an appointment 6 months later, I would show up, check in, wait 30 minutes to an hour and then have a staff member inform me that the doctor had to reschedule due to an emergency or some other conflict. Every time. For 2 years.
They are understaffed, don’t give a fuck, and in the middle of a mental health crisis. They’re super available to cram pills down your throat, though. 😬

Yeah that was largely my own experience too. It’s only gonna get worse since they will do nothing to fix it.
