A sad place for sad people to be sad.
Have fun!
This community is for people with depression. Memes and general discussion about depression are encouraged and welcome.
Bi-polar people are also allowed to post here but only sometimes.(joke)
This community is aimed at being inclusive for all people with depression and as such should be free of racism, homophobia, trans-phobia, sexism, patriarch and all other forms of hate-speech.
Trolls will be banned!
Thnx

If you're old enough to consent for yourself in your state and can manage to cover the copay yourself, your parents likely won't even know about it unless they actually read the Explanation of Benefits (very uncommon in my experience)
You can search Psychologytoday.com for virtual psychiatrists in your state, and find someone who will be sympathetic to your situation and stretch out your appointments as long as possible to reduce how often you need to pay a copay
