> I couldn't think of much to suggest aside from counseling/CBT. She is unemployed, she says the only free counseling help or med help is for people who are hurting themselves. She said she can't get in (hospital or counseling) unless she is about to commit suicide so they won't help her.
She's right.
I was looking into this for myself while unemployed, and there's either a big waiting list or NO services at all unless you're suicidal.
