I know how you feel, to a lesser extent. My medicine price went up because of my dad's insurance (on it till I'm 26) changed. Need my meds or I'm a jumpy, bipolar, suicidal mess. That and I'd detox.

Yeesh, that's rough. I'm also on my parents insurance until I'll 26 (thank God for that, I just developed asthma a year ago and it still is not fully in control yet, lots of different meds...). When our insurance is being nice, it costs $50, which is very reasonable for what it is. However, now it's $300 until our deductible is met, and we're still $4000 away from that.. Ridiculous. Insurance is supposed to be helpful, not heinous.
