life sucks
I feel like a hooker that needs to work for her drug money and gets nothing to show for all the extra work.
I have MS (multiple Sclerosis). Had it since 1998. While depression is not new to me, the current bout of medical issues is. I had a good job for 10 years but quit because they didn't want me to go days and I was starting to hate nights. That job had a good drug plan. I paid nothing except a small $6. per prescription. Now I have to pay $400 of a $1700 a month every 3 weeks. That is one pay check for me.
I am trying to get trilluim but the medication is not covered.
If that isn't a problem, right now, my head will not stop spinning. I have constant dizzy spells, eye pain, heaches and had my very first optical migrane.
Life sucks. everyone wants something from me and I can't afford to say no. Family are always saying that we are strong and can overcome anything. Work is always pushing for more and I am thinking of giving up volunteering because I don't have any more "good feelings" to do the work I used to love to do.[
