Yes I now have health insurace! Now what?

Question

I know that this probably sounds stupid but I've gone so long with out health insurance. Im only 19 and I live alone.

I begged my mom to put me under her plan and she did. Its a PPO plan with a $20 co pay each visit and a $20 co pay for prescriptions.

I have REALLY REALLY bad insomia that I need to be treated as well as depression/a possible anxiety issues/lack on concentration/lost interest in school/ What do I say to the doctors for treatment?

I dont want to talk to a pyschologist or none of that, I've been through that all before w/free clinics and its done nothing. When I was going to the clinic they diagonised me with depression and ajdustment issues <--Im not sure what that means, still) but i stopped going because my pyschologist keep on mixing me up with other patients she had.

Im going to call the doctors to make an appt here soon after ya'll tell me what i should say to make sure I get the treatment that I need!!

Answer 1

You really should seek the help of a specialist.. A sleep specialist as well as a psychologist.. Even if you think it didn't help you before- you can always change the person that you speak with... Especially if you think you have depression issues some medications if not dispensed properly can do more harm than good if not monitored by the right people... So start by seeing a regular doctor.. They should help you seek a proper program/doctor (specialist) and go from there.. It might cost you a bit more to do this but, it's worth it to get the help that you need.. Some antidepressents cause sleep problems and mood shifts... Good luck

Answer 2

first of all,when you see your gp,explain all your symptoms,and say how long you,ve had the symptoms,also tell the gp that you have seen other medical people to no avail, i,d like very much to know exactly what i could be suffering from,the gp should take it from there.

Answer 3

Well, you really should sit with your doctor and explain all your issues and see what he or she suggests.
