If you would not mind sharing, I would please like to ask what type of insurance coverage you have for mental health, such as seeing a psychologist/therapist. I live in Missouri and work in an office. My son sees a therapist while away at school for depression and my insurance here will pay 80% - after a $650 deductible. If you would not mind to share, I am interested in knowing if others have a similar insurance plan. They say that mental health is not "healthcare," ...

What "really" happened to IC status? How did we turn into employees without benfits? I recall when IC was REALLY IC. I took a break and things had changed pretty drastically! We now are required to basically do "shift work," which I understand to a point, but it sure isn't the way it was!!

I personally just dropped out for awhile, and a new ...
