How to pick the right therapist to go to?
I am 22, female, a NEET (not in education, employment, or training). I was laid off at my job at a kindergarten last summer (at 2 school years, it was the first job i kept for more than a few weeks, and I got to work alongside my mom. I was good at it and It gave me fulfillment & financial stability). Im dependent on my bf in every aspect.. driver, rent payer... He cant go out without me calling & getting a panic attack if he doesn't answer. Im depressed. We rarely have sex, I have no motivation to shower or tidy up. I dont have one single friend and I dont leave the house unless I beg my bf to take me along with him on errands. I only sleep 4 nights a week bc I dont burn off enough energy to sleep. I am certain I have OCD &/or Asperger's Syndrome. I dont have a passion so I have no motivation for college. I have mild interests but not enough to keep me there. I've failed or dropped out 3x when I was 16 and 18. I have no sense of community or belonging and im so lost and confused about my life.
.
The only "real" problems in my life I brought upon mmyself.Or so my dad says. I have daddy issues surprise surprise.. Im in a quarter-life crisis. Its not self harm, anorexia, and panic and rage attacks bad like when I was a teen. Its days without showering or cleaning up dirty dishes, house-ridden, confusion and hopelessness and social desperation bad.
I have Medicaid for my disability (arthritis and scoliosis and IBS-C) so cost isn't a factor if its covered.Saw my first therapist at 7, was so bad at 16 I was hospitalized . I've been misdiagnosed, mismedicated, and not clicked with therapists. I need it to work this time. I dont have it in me to go only for it to be a bad fit. How do I know without committing to one?

I feel so bad for you and maybe you need to break up with your boyfriend because need him that badly is very unhealthy ! You need therapy very badly but it's not something to be ashamed of we all have problems they might be different but we all have them ! But maybe you should buy a probiotic I heard they help with anxiety and start working out and eating healthy that is a good mental start it will clear your head !but your in my prayers tonight I hope and pray you get the help you need! When you go to a therapist don't let them just shove anti depressions and Zanex Down your throat that will mask the problem not fix it and if you do need medicine maybe look into medical marijuana !
