This past two years of my life has been an unbelievably hard to conceive of. I no longer understand anything. Everything seems so mind-f'ed right now.

Unemployed for the first time: past four months...no hope in sight
Antidepressant that helps: past seven months
Had a year long affair that brought about my meltdown: ended a little over a year ago
Everything feels like a lie and everyone a liar: past 7 months
Possibility of also having Lupus: first mentioned 2 1/2 yrs ago; re-mentioned last week.
No health insurance: last eight months

I am so overwhelmed!! Nothing feels right anymore. What am I doing here on this crazy f'ing planet? I feel so alien, so unlike everyone else. I don't even know why I'm writing this other than to get it out. To possibly find words of wisdom or encouragement. I need to see a med doc, but without a job I can get my mental health and not regular health. I'm so frustrated I can't concentrate on homework. I need a job desperately, but I'm having no luck and I'm losing confidence as to selling myself as a great employee. I'm an okay worker, fairly intelligent, but emotionally sensitive...and possibly Lupus as an answer to these pains I experience. Idk wtf to think anymore. I need reason...I need sanity...where can I find it?

are you a college student? I only ask, because in the states, all college campuses have professional offices that may be of some help. I was un-insured for several years in college, but the medical office helped with a dermatologist (professional that visited regularly) as well as another type of doctor hook-up for me. It really helped me a lot!

Your tuition pays for those services ~ use them! Now is the perfect tine, before you get bogged down with other health or financial concerns. ((((( best wishes )))))

Yes I'm in community college. When I went to university, they had a lot of med services. I hadn't thought of them as a resource...but it doesn't hurt to ask. I've already tried any other possible angle.

My search has led me to trying to get into a reduced payment option or medical trial with a medical university in the state. Thanks for all those lending a shoulder to cry on.
