I am still on my parents insurance I do not drive so my mom usually picks up my prescriptions with hers so it is a bit hard to take it behind her back
I can see how that's a hurdle to overcome, but not that difficult, surely? Next time you're at the doctor, pick up the prescription without telling her - that part is simple. Then when you're next within walking distance of a pharmacy and your mom isn't around, go in and wait for the meds on your own. Or have a friend drive. Pay out of pocket - the generics are very cheap and you can easily bypass the insurance. There's ways around this.

Could not agree with you more my mom says she wants me to see a therapist but everyone I find her is not good enough for her or she drags her feet on it this is not the first time I have brought this up in the past 25+ years
Whether the therapist is "good enough for her" or not is absolutely irrelevant; the only criteria is whether the therapist is good enough for
you. I don't mean to be too abrupt, but it sounds like your mom is actively blocking your transition by vetoing decisions that aren't hers to make, in addition to controlling your transport, your access to drugs, your access to doctors etc. You might be her son/daughter, but you're not a child, you're not a legal minor, and there's some apron strings that sound like they need cutting - or at least loosening. And this is a two-way street though: while she needs to let you have some independence, you might need to tell her to stop micromanaging your affairs.
