Might be moving, and I'm looking into the best states or country if I can get into one that have the best mental health care especially for someone with borderline personality disorder, social anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder and insomnia? I know clonazepam/klonopin is difficult pretty much everywhere because all psych doctors have different opinions, but I take 1mg twice a day, and 200mg of trazodone for my insomnia.

I always believed we couldn't show up in another country and start using their national healthcare. I hope I been wrong this whole time.
If you're poor, Massachusetts has decent coverage. Cops aren't trigger happy either. The trade off is the cost of living is more and the winters suck. If and when you get better there are tons of schooling options. Minimum wage is $13.

It's probably better in smaller cities and in the Midwest. In big cities it's more expensive and might take longer to get access.

Free doesn't mean you will be able to access it no matter what, or get any care u wish to get, and any amount u might need for your specific circumstances. This is why u never want gov controlling medicine. Individuals need full control over things like options with healthcare because it can mean the difference between life and death to not have access.

I'm sorry, I have to disagree with this. In my experience, smaller places mean worse care and fewer options. The Midwest is particularly bad. You'll most likely find yourself having to travel to nearby cities for any kind of decent help, and even then, it probably won't be great.
Massachusetts is pretty good for all sorts of healthcare. There are many mental health services in place and a lot of support options I never knew I could access until I moved here. It's not perfect, of course, but I'd rather be mentally ill in MA than most of the rest of the country.

I'd rather live in a crap country with one good doctor/therapist that is mine than to be in a great country with a plethora of crap doctors/therapists.

Massachusetts is an alright option, Free health care for those struggling with money but it takes applying about every year I believe, which is a big con.

It's not that big a deal. Just a small amount of paperwork that you can mail or fax back in.
Should be nobody's business what anyone earns to be able to access medical care. Oops u make a dollar too much so u will have to make yourself poorer than u already are to get this service lol!

Agreed, shouldn't really be their business for something so important.
