I dont really quite feel like talking to someone in person. And ive debated on the help lines but that just makes me feel like a waste of their time. Ive tried 7cups who swore up and down they were free, yeah for a week. They really should specify TRIAL. Anyway i was hoping maybe someone could point me in the dicrection of preferably an online therapy thing. Everything i seem to find cost money that i dont have or are random volunteer and no offence to them i am greatful they want to help but id like someone will a bit knowledge on all of this. Thats the other thing when i say random i mean random. Id like someone i can talk to as a constant. I dont want to repeat my story and problems to a million different people. Im probably asking for too much though. Id just go to the therapist here but id like them to be in walking distant because i dont have a drivers license but thats 30mins to an hour walk and in the heart of the worse part of town. As a 120lb female ill pass lol. Oh should probably canadian. I noticed a lot of things if nkt everything is specific about that. Anyway ill say thanks for the help in advance and let you know that i will read all the posts and probably make a follow up post to let you all know how it goes. So thank you <3 🙂

Just tried always there an app by kidshelpline…not a fan of the excessive information needed or the terms and agreement.
Also it crashed…so helpful
Can you catch a bus there by any chance?
Probably but I don’t want to. I really dislike people and I don’t trust them so I’d prefer it to be really close to home or online
I don’t know if the canadians have had any better luck with regulatory framework. There’s confidentiality issues and issues with keeping the same therapist online. Most of the offerings I’ve seen are for profit and not covered by insurance, because of the legal issues. As soon as insurance covers something it has to be covered by all kind of legal protections that those sorts of sites don’t offer…. which doesn’t make it any easier.
I ended up going through a non profit in my city to try and get a permanent therapist, I’ll be seeing them in two and a half weeks. Before that I was seeing someone through my university, which was productive but not useful when classes aren’t in session.
Insurance? Yeah I don’t have that. And I would be in university if my parents didn’t get me kicked out of school.
