Back in the 70's it was realized that it was cheaper to treat people before their probems got too big. Community Mental Health Centers were formed to ensure all could get mental health care they could afford. Find out where your local Community Mental Health Center is and you will be charged based on your ability to pay rather than the full fee. Think about some talk therapy, though. Meds don't work very well for situational depression/anxiety (meaning it's not a chemical imbalance, you have good reason to be anxious and depressed.)
