Due to paying some unusually expensive bills, I no longer have enough money to get my meds for this month, so unless I can have a yard sale on Monday (slept thru having one today like an idiot) and make some extra cash, I'm fcked! I see my psych nurse on the 7th and she will be writing out scripts for a couple of meds, and then, i have the scripts at the pharmacy that my nurse practitioner wrote out for me since I had missed my appointment with the psych nurse the first time around. Anyway, I'm in big trouble. Every time I come off my meds like this, I end up in a hospital.
I know I could ask for samples from my psych nurse, but for some stupid reason, I just can't bring myself to do so. I can't admit that I'm broke and can't afford to get my meds...just can't. I wish I could, but it really won't happen. I'll try to ride it out even if it kills me because that's how I am.
So anyway, if I get crazy here in a few days, I'm sorry. I won't be a bitch, but I might be totally out there...WAYYY out there.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I do feel your pain. I was diagnosed in July after years of frantic ups, downs, and overall madness. I'm still trying to get the meds right but my wife couldn't deal with me anymore. She gave me the boot last week. My insurance was under her name so there goes that. No therapy and no meds. I'm a bit afraid of the days ahead, but it is what it is I suppose.
Hang in there!
I've been there. (I never stopped taking my meds...just the ones I was one stopped working for me.)
There are drug assist programs but they take time. Here is some info for later use

I know, I know...I'm screwing up big time.
I know how wrong I am, but thank you all for the concern.
