The Medicine Program

I'll be 23 years old on the 20th of March and will be unemployed for a year on the month of May. I lived in a teen homeless shelter for 19 months and went through severe mental evaluation. I was diagnosed with Bipolar, Manic Depressant, PTSD, Insomnia and was also a self mutilator. At the age of 5 I was diagnosed with Leukemia which took away my childhood. After years of searching, my doctors finally found a matching Bone Marrow Donor. Which then followed with years of Bone Marrow Transplants and Radiation. Surprisingly I survived BUT grew up mentally unstable. I left home at 16 and moved about the US until I ended up in a teen homeless shelter for 19 months, got back on my feet after years of therapy and "Happy Pills." It took 2 years after that for my depression to subside and I lost my job, the roof over my head and am now living in an unstable environment. I wait for the day when my mind will convince me that my life is worth living for. And that's just the short version of it.

I am a single mom who has never received a dime of help from her father. He's in and out of jail. I have mild displasia and anxiety. I work full time but never seem to get ends to meet. My hospital costs for myself and my daughter are out of control and without help I will not be able to continue getting the medecines we need.

I'm 34, and I have struggled with A.D.D. throughout my life. It has always interfered with my chance for a good education, finding a job, and living my life to the fullest. I have been unemployed for almost a year because I have a very hard time finding and maintaining a steady job. My a.d.d. limits my ability to remember, and focus on even the simplest things in life. Any time I have ever gone on an interview for potential employment, I have not been able to to present myself as the right candidate for the position I've applied for. I can never think of the right words to say, or the right questions to ask, so many people misjudge the man I really am. I'm a very hard worker, but I've been turned down many times for jobs because of my learning disability. It's very frustrating when people won't give me the chance to prove myself. Because of all this, I can't even support my own family. I've had to depend on my disabled fiance to help me financially, and now she is unable to work due to her health problems. I am a part time student, but I'm struggling with my studies. A few years ago, my physician gave me free samples of Strattera, and it helped me TREMENDOUSLY! Unfortunately, I haven't been able to afford it because it is extremely EXPENSIVE. I really want to do well in college, and earn a bachelors degree so that I can have a career in the near future, and provide for my family. I have a prescription for Strattera, and my fiance' found this wonderful free prescription plan that will help me get it. Now after all these years, I know I'll have a good chance of fulfilling my dreams.
