Hi all,
I believe this is my first post over here. I have chron's (taking many med's) and on top of that I am taking effoxor for depression.

All has been going okay for me until lately when the job situation maybe getting worse. You see right now I have benifits and my wife is going to loose her job and possibly take a job out of state which means that I will have to quit my job as well. This is starting to make me think about the worse things that can happen like getting sick with no medical insurance. Sometimes I just want to say the hell with it all and with all the crap that is starting to come my way, sometimes I feel that I may just loose it. It is hard to see anything that is good in this world any longer. Can someone help me see what's good in this world? What will I do if I loose my job and need med's without medical insurance?

Thanks for reading,
mistdancer

Sometimes it helps me to take a step back at look at the little things that make me happy. Even if its a flower, a favorite movie, a good book, a friend, people that care about you.

Some days are just bad days, but it gets better.

Hope this helps :-)

Hi Sadgirl2,

Thanks for the reply. I try sometimes but sometimes I just want to run away from it all. I do not see where my life makes a big difference.

Hey man hang in there. You have a family who loves you and that is something fantastic. I recently lost my one bright light due to my illness (divorce)and am feeling alot like you are but things get better. It is just fear of the unknown. I find most things turn out better than we imagine it will; even though I too have a hard time seeing it.

Hi Alone,
Sorry to hear what happened to you. I will try to hang in there. I know that sometimes things appear very dark before the light comes on, but it sure is getting dark.
