I need to find help for my mental problems but don’t know where to start.

[Looktothesky]

I had a therapist that I saw for years and really liked but she retired. I desperately need help. I am on anxiety medication but unsure of how well it’s working and I have communication problems and depression which are ruining my life. I am not sure about where I should be going. Psychologist? Psychiatrist? Therapist? I desperately need help. I am worried that I have some kind of personality disorder.

Start with your primary care provider and ask for a referral.

Ok. Thank you

That's what I did in essence. My primary doctor referred me to a psychiatrist who prescribed medication. My insurance referred me to a psychologist for talk therapy.

Thank you. I ended up calling a place on a recommendation from a family member.

Make an appointment with your physician for a complete evaluation of your physical and mental health. Get some tests done. Ask for a referral to a qualified therapist for ongoing support. Also contact your health insurance and see who is in your plan accepting new patients.
