I am 6 weeks into taking DESVENLAFAXINE ,,,a switch from my long-time use of Zoloft ( which seemed to had "worn out" or lost it's effect for me.)
DESVENLAFAXINE has been effective for me...the first 8 or 9 days were tough...but I now feel much better.
Here's my problem:
My health insurance was cancelled...and I cannot afford my script for this expensive new AD.
I have already gotten two, 2 week sample paks from my Pdoc ( who now I cannot go to because I have no insurance.....and owe him money from previously uncovered visits) and a two-week sample pak from my Family Doctor. I cannot go to him for the same reason..no Insurance.
To complicate matters I have made the much warned about mixing of alcohol with my Meds.
I took my last pill of DESVENLAFAXINE this morning.I feel depressed right now,scared, and unsure of what to do next.
I still have a week or two left of unsused Zoloft...should I wait a day and start taking it again?
I am on 2 other Meds, whose prescriptions will run out soon also.
I am guessing I am 3 weeks to a month away from Insurance Coverage....through another company...but even THAT is not for sure.
I am currently unemployed with time on my hands...no money....and much financial responsibilty for my family....
Where do I start? I would appreciate any helpful advice.
Thanks
BF
