I hate texas

i can only make 250 dollars a month to qualify for state insurence, thats practicly homeless... i make more then that so i get no insurence. So im bipolar type 1 the severe kind and in two weeks i will run out of meds because they wont give me insurence.

do they not understand i will go nuts and the way i act when manic is i spend lots of money and fuck like crazy, and when im depressed i think of ways of killing myself and murdering people.

this state is fucked up.

the state bush screwed.

 

So where exactly in texas are you?

 

LOLI'm in Austin, i just moved here three weeks ago from Washington

 

I think they're all pretty screwed right now. My stepmother has MS, and she's also had cancer and 2 or 3 strokes, and she gets less than 800 $$'s a month in her disability check. She needs help, but apparently she makes too much money. just ONE of her medications costs like a thousand bucks a month, that's more than she makes on her DC. That's not including all the other meds she's on, as well as bills, gas and groceries.

Thing is, she had just finished 4 years of school and the day before she graduated she had her first stroke. It fucked up her arm and leg and shit, so all those years of school (secretary shit, I think) were completely wasted.

 

Damn that sucks.....


my meds are 350 a month. they recommended i try social securty and get on disablity, but i mean if im on my meds im ok i can work... without them though im a fucked up chick...im screwed

 

Can you talk to your Doctor and see if they can work out a plan for you so you do not have to go without your meds? They normally get samples of medicines. I don't know what kind your on but if you tell them how scared you are maybe they will make an exception for you.

 

ya i just moved so without insurence i cant see a doctor here. my old doctor sent me a perscription for two months worth and its going to cost me 786 dollars... i dont have that kind of money.

 

Austin, Texas... the land of Alex Jones.

 

Makes me glad to live in New Zealand... where I get free doctors visits and free medication most of the time and if not... at a very low price.
Dude, you should have moved here!

 

ya america dosent take care of there own.

I really feel for you... I have anxiety disorder and without my meds Im fucked. Hope everything works out for you.

 

thanks i hope so too...

if i come up missing in two weeks its because im in the funny farm

 

wiccan....you can always get the meds for her and send them to her........see there is always a way

 

I find it kinda strange you moved from seattle to austin. Ive been to austin, yes. and its an amazing town to say the least, but I know if I lived out west, I wouldnt move to the heartland, unless my job asked for it. Austin is a gem in the middle of redneck country to say the least. once you go out of austin, its a whole new place. hicks and cowboys everywhere. actually I know of a person who moved from NY city (staten island, I think) to austin, tx too, and she took alot of heat from people about her move. they thought it was weird, but not all that weird if you think about it.

 

the move came about because a job came up, and there is lots of family here...i didnt want to move but i had to do finacilly what was best for us..

i miss washington though.

 

im so sorry crystal. life can really suck at times....

hmm, suggestion- do you think maybe you can TALK to a doctor or do some research on line and try to find some cheaper medication. i was on something before for manic depression and it was fairly cheap but i cant remember the name cause i didnt take it for long (im not bipolar but it's a long story...my cousin was diagnosed and my mom thought that was what was "wrong" with me)

but anyways... i will be praying and sending vibes that things start looking up for you soon cause you frickin deserve it!!

 

thanks trish

 

Not having socialized medicine really pisses me off. It's not fair at all. See if you have a YWCA they might be able to help.

 

It sounds like a road trip to Mexico is in order. You can save bundles on prescription drugs in Mexico.

 

im thinking mexico too
