Parents are against medications... 🙃 (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm young enough to be on my parents' health insurance plan, they have enough funding to pay for copays/deductibles (it's not really a money issue, is what I'm trying to say). But my parents (especially my mother), opposes medication and tells me I need to "Just Go Outside".

So, I wonder how long before I kms...

Call 988 if it gets to that point. If you really feel that you are a danger to yourself or others you can find the help you need. Hopefully it doesn't make it that far but if it does perhaps that is a wake up call to the rents.

And remember, you aren't alone
