why I'm broke.
on tumblr I wanted to go into a long rant/explanation about why I needed to ask for money but I didn't because I was afraid some asshole would try to pick it apart.
but I guess I can kinda explain here. my medicaid has flipped around to a different managed care provider and now I need new doctor authorizations before they will pay for certain things. in the meantime I'm left paying cash. and then there was my regular eye doctor who stopped taking medicaid altogether. so I had to pay for an eye exam* and glasses (at least I was able to order the glasses from zenni so I didn't have to pay a lot). I had to pay for my pain meds this month. I have no idea what's going to happen when the big, expensive med I take comes up in about a week - it's way more than I can pay for out of pocket (the last time I checked, a 30 day supply was $1400). hopefully the doctor will have enough samples of Vraylar to hold me over until the new medicaid managed care provider decides I can have it after all.
we will not even get into the stress I'm having because 'what if they decide not to pay for it?'
I am switching internet providers because the one we have now (CenturyLink) sucks HARD. they have outages all the time, sometimes just for an hour, but sometimes for days at a time. so I'm getting xfinity. I don't have good credit (or any credit, tbh) so I had to put down a deposit for the hardware they sent to get me set up. I haven't switched over yet because I'm waiting on someone to come out here and install something on my house so I can use it. but that was another expense.
my mom's computer died and I got her a new chromebook. she's paying me back but couldn't right away, so that was a little over $200.
we are still paying for the new heat and air unit that we had to replace last summer.
we are still paying for repairs on the house and property because of hurricane Michael. these are things the insurance didn't cover.
I don't qualify for SNAP, so I buy all the groceries with cash.
like, I'm on a fixed income with my SSI. I don't have all this money. I've tried to set up a Patreon in the past but 1. it freaked me out and gave me so much anxiety I couldn't stand it and 2. I hate making any kind of money off fannish activities and it didn't feel right
thanks for reading this.
*I can't just go anywhere. I need to go to familiar places. so going to a new eye doctor who DOES take my medicaid when I've already psyched myself up to go see the familiar one is haaaaaaaaaard. too hard, in this case. my anxiety and agoraphobia suck donkey balls.
TL;DR - I need money and my paypal is anthony.melissa@rocketmail.com
