ADHD moms without insurance
We don’t have insurance. We make too much for medi-cal and in order to get insurance through covered ca, we’ll have to pay $2300 for us and our girls (family of 4). We live paycheck to paycheck and still just can’t afford it. I’ve been on adderall practically my whole life and don’t know what I’ll do. Does anyone see a cash pay doctor in town or nearby that won’t charge an arm & leg for a visit? My previous drs cash rate is $710 every 2 months. What do I do? I need this medication to function.
Also accepting all recs on job openings in town that will let me take my kids to and from school (8-2:30) bonus if they offer insurance. My husbands schedule is too chaotic to expect him to do those things
Please don’t come for me. We live within our means and by the time we pay mortgage, taxes, pg&e, etc, we barely have anything left each month. If you’re here to say “if you’re over income you can afford it” I’m here to tell you we really cannot. We don’t have any luxuries, car payments, etc. by the time taxes come out of my husbands check each month, he makes $4k. Mortgage is $2200. Pg&e/solar is $480. Water is $100. Trash is $50. Gas is who knows how much. Then there’s internet, insane prices of groceries, baby formula, car insurance, and the list goes on. We don’t get wic either and are just barely over income for our kids to get medi-cal. I didn’t come to be lectured because at the end of the day we pay more in taxes and our take home is close to others who do qualify for help. I just wanna know how to continue taking my meds and/or find a job that actually cares enough to work around my available hours and might offer cheaper insurance
