I've tried to hide from my problems and just lie the depression away. I've never forged a true partnership with any of the many who have tried to treat me.

That period is over now that I am in such a desperate place. I'm so low right now, and am convinced that I'll never work again.

I want the pain to stop but my options are limited because there are those who somehow love me. I have to stay alive no matter what. I have to find a way to get through this and realize that this is a temporary problem.

It's hard, though, as I've lost medical coverage and am out of medicine. As it flushes out of my system, this problem will reach an entirely new level. I am so scared!

Hello jtesta33: I am sorry you have reached such a low point. I know that having people around you who love you can be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, their warmth & caring can be comforting. But, on the other hand, it means you can't simply lay down & give up when sometimes that is all you feel you are capable of doing. At least this has been my experience. I hope that you can reach out to those people who love you & gain the support you need during this most difficult time. I send warm thoughts your way with the hope that it might be so...

I've seen on other posts information on options to get free or subsidised treatment? I don't know for your country, can anyone enlighten us ?

(I hope I'm not speaking out of turn)

Have you explored talking to your pharmacist? In person? I had a situation once under different circumstances, where I talked to the pharmacist and she told me about another pharmacy that had the medication at a very cheap price without insurance. Different pharmacies have different pricing and prescription programs. Had I not been speaking face to face with this particular pharmacist, I know she probably never would have offered the information.

Perhaps call your doctor's office, explain your situation, and see if the doctor has any free drug samples to give you. This is often the case. He could leave them at the front desk, no appointment needed or to pay for. It would not be a long term solution, but . . .

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
