No Job=No Insurance=No Medications

[anonymous]

Can someone help me with what to do?

I lost my health insurance when I lost my job. I have been on one medication for years. It has a half-life of one day and even initial withdrawal symptoms are horrendous. Suddenly quitting can result in a number of things: like suicide or death w/o suicide.

I just found out that med alone will be 400/mo.

I could get a job or move to Canada but my mom has inoperable pancreatic cancer and my family has been counting on me to help her. I am taking her to appts and doing the work at the house. It has been pretty much full-time.

Plus I am barely keeping it together and the only reason I can is because she and my dad need me.

Does anyone understand what I can do through the affordable care act?

I don't think God or countryor maybe even you care if I die but my family does.

Please: advice. I'm scared and feel alone.
