Free/Low Cost Mental health help for someone without insurance?


My brother lives in the SF bay area and needs to see someone for his depression desperately, he's not working because of it. Are there any programs that could help someone like him?

All state run mental health facilities ave to treat u for free or based on ur ability to pay. They will insist that e at least apply for medicaid but if denied he will still be seen for free.

He can call Social Services in his city they can refer him to low cost or free care. Also if he is unable to work because of his depression he is eligible for Social Security Disability. If he goes to his local Social Security Office and applies he is immediately eligible for a medical card that will take care of all of his medical needs. He can also go to an emergency room, they will hospitilize him and they will help him start the Social Security Process. If he has been or will be in the hosptal for his depression that is an immediate reason to approve him. But it takes six months to get the disability check. From the date that he applies until he is approved in six months he will get a check that will be retroactive from the day he applied. I was unable to work because of depression for a long time and never knew that I was eligible or that there was a such thing as Social Security Disability until a friend told me. I wish the best to both of you and success in the treatment of your brother's depression.

The answer could vary by person.It is alway a good idea to hear the suggestion from different sides and try to choose the best one.Here http://www.HealthInsuranceIdeas.info/fre... is a good one i recommend.
