Medicine is expensive.

Thanks to my doctor arguing on my behalf, the state aid will help cover costs of Cymbalta, which they normally do not do!  Which is amazing, because standard full price for less than a month's worth is $470+. There's no way I could afford it by myself. Now comes the worry that as long as I take it, I *cannot* afford to not have some sort of health aid or insurance, because it's not the kind of medicine you can just stop cold turkey because you can't afford to pay for it.
