    I have asked for mental health for my family... we have been waiting for 3 yrs... we have been told that unless we attempt suicide, are on drugs or part of a letter, so there is no help. we can't get help for dealing with a cancer diagnosis in one of our kids... i screamed to finally get a nurse for my boys to talk to. we have called every provider around the state.... no one will take our insurance, and the cash amount has risen that I can't pay for 2 kids to seek help, let alone the parents. if we lived in Portland Dornbeckers, would help our child with cancer... but not the family. I grew up here, and services were better 40 years ago.. your best bet is to be a color, druggie, a letter or homeless... they dont care about you.
