Help ADHD telehealth clinics

[fallendevil]

I haven't had insurance for over 2 months now because my family kicked me off of theirs with no warning because they were upset that I had control over my medical appointments, I've been waiting aimlessly to be approved but I'm very new to this process and don't know what I'm doing or if I'm even doing it right. It's affecting me greatly.

I struggle greatly with my mental health and neurodivergence and stimulants were the only thing that helped. Are there any telehealth clinics or just any in general that will accept me without insurance or ask me for anything extra like a wellness visit? I also live in California if that helps. I know major pharmacies won't accept them but I have a Costco membership so I'm fine going to theirs.

I know there's always Zocdoc. Heard good things about it, though I've never tried it myself.

Make sure to ask for a sliding scale or reduced fees based on your income.

Also, when it comes to buying meds, GoodRx can help.

I think you can also ask pharmacies for discounts too.

And whatever medicine you get, I know some have programs for people struggling to pay the regular prices on their websites, typically for medicines that are generic-only like Qelbree, and I think they subsidize the cost for a period of time.

Those are just things I know of, there's probably a lot more out there.

Oh, also, have you thought about applying to California Medicaid? Is that what you're waiting to be approved, or something else? That might help you get in with IRL clinics and psych places near you.​
