Maybe you missed the part on the health statement that requires you to check yes or no to "Have you ever received treatment for Mental/ Neurotic/ Emotional Disorder?"

Try one of the pastors at an English speaking church. At the very least, they should be able to give you a referral.

There is psychological help but FREE not likely.

Maybe you can find a pastor or priest to help you out.

I think that "free psychological therapy" would be a valuable job benefit offered at the end of contracts. After a few years here, I'm sure that most people have been scarred for life.

Nah, I do not need any head shrink, I have my friends Jack, Walker, and Jim. Add a little ice into the mix and I have all the help I need.
