CW: mention of suicide
FYI: This is a serious question, I’m not trying to manipulate the system or anything. I truly believe therapy would be preventive care for me.
I know the healthcare system isn’t great about therapy. Currently, my insurance has therapy costing $80 PER SESSION. If I’m serious about talking to someone, that would be every week, and I 100% cannot afford that.
On the other hand, my insurance covers ALL preventive medicine. As in it’s $0.
As a person with a history of serious depression and mental illness, including suicidal ideation, mental health care could conceivably prevent me from ending my own life at some point in the future. I’m not saying I’m fully suicidal now, but I never know when I could get that way again.
Could I arrange with my health insurance to get therapy covered as “preventive care” in this case?
