I can’t afford health insurance, I’m renting a house, not because I particularly want to, but because I’m not allowed to be trans in my mother’s home. It was between dreadful life or a bankrupt one. I chose the latter.
Now my wrist is fucked up, and I can’t afford health insurance. Even the plan offered by my job is over 80$ a month. I’m barely scraping by as it is. I can’t pay the doctors to check it out and it’s getting worse each day. My range of motion severely decreased today.
Who can I turn to? Am I totally fucked or is there some organization out there that helps people in this situation, or some loophole I can use for treatment? At this point I’m choosing between the pain and going hungry.
I never expected reality to hit me like this.
