should i get in touch with a therapist or a psychiatrist?

hello, im considering my options. should i get a therapist or psychiatrist?

i dont really believe having a therapist will fix me, i dont think talking about anything will change it for me. but it's a way cheaper option, so I'm asking people who's had a therapist appointment if it was worth it. if it could help just a little bit, id get it.

my goal is to be medicated/get a diagnosis, but its so expensive. i suspect i have a hormone imbalance that's why i feel depressed (for seemingly no reason from my perspective). i already talked to a psychiatrist before but i got frustrated because he kept asking me for a reason i could be depressed/if theres anything i want in life that would change that and i couldnt think of anything. if i continued with this path, it would be extremely expensive and the questions were frustrating. i was only verbally (not officially) diagnosed with MDD.

I have history of ED, suicide ideation, some violent thoughts etc. i cant tell if i have a personality disorder or mood disorder. i believe i have great self control on myself. please do not worry
