I'm an independent contracter so I pay for my own insurance. They just bumped it up AGAIN to $500 a month and that's not including about a hundred bucks for med co-pays and the fact that I pay for every Dr. visit because my deductible is so high I haven't reached it for the last three years.

The thing is I don't think I'm eligible for SS benefits because I've been a little lax about taxes. I was hoping this healthcare bill would help but I'm realizing I need help sooner.

I'm 28 and spend around 7k a year on medical costs! I've applied to other insurance companies but they never accept me because of the BPD diagnosis.

Someone please tell me there is something I can do about this. I just can't afford it anymore.
