In WV we have a "clinic" styled type mental health facility and the meds are not prescribed through a pharmacy. Basically the "low/no" income patients who aren't insured are given sample packs of medication that companies send them. The only thing about it is you have to go back once a month for more samples. I've even gotten old bottles of other patients medication and stuff like that...not expired, just given back for medication change. It all sounds kind of "cheap" but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. I'm not sure if your location has something like this but to find out call your local DHHR and ask. It's better then nothing or suffering and when I went they were always pretty good to me and did what they could to help me out.
