You could try talking to a therapist. When they have an opening in 3 months. Which you'll have to use one of your 3 annual sick days for. And pay out of pocket because the insurance that your employer takes $400/mo out of your paycheck for doesn't cover that therapist.

while you are in the middle of a mental health crisis is a great time to start looking for a therapist because you can navigate the complicated mental health care system, wait patiently, and pay cash for something insurance claims to cover.
