Posting on behalf of my boyfriend in USA

My boyfriend needs some support and was hoping there might be other people from the USA who use this website..

This is his post:

So I'm gonna go out on a limb here and ask for some help. I live in Georgia and was wondering if anyone knew who I should contact about getting myself back on my depression and ADHD medication. I turned to my family who claims they want to help me but, their idea of helping me was trying to have me committed/sectioned. I would really appreciate the help. I'm tired of feeling this way constantly.

Edit: he doesn't have insurance and he hasn't got a job either since everywhere he's been applying to and even since attending interviews, no one has taken him on

Any help or advice on places he can go to get support with his lack of resources would be helpful to know

Like charities or health clinics who would be willing to help him despite him not having any means of paying right now

He currently lives with his Uncle who has taken him in out of kindness

He can walk into any community clinic and get help. Google community clinics xx Georgia, xx=City he lives in. These clinics will help him apply for Medicaid, basically insurance. Good luck!

Please have your boyfriend call the Georgia Crisis & Access Line to explain his situation and they will let him know what the available resources are. Or, you can call on his behalf and explain what it is he needs. Here is a link to the page that provides you that phone number. dbhdd.georgia.gov/adult-men...
