If not too personal, what has this all cost so far?

I’m not sure what the psychologist charges to be honest, it was all under a mental health plan that’s just been extended. The psychiatrist consultation was close to $1000 but I should get around half back. It’s pricey but a relief to finally have it confirmed and get some treatment. I’m turning 53 this week and I should have done this years ago when it became clear that things weren’t quite right.

If you use the medicare number 291 you can get it for cheaper. My psychiatrist doesn’t cost a lot (they cost a lot but not $500 or $1k) so I was able to get my first appointment for free, but definitely use this!
