I read that Costco has low-cost drugs and you do not have to be a member to get them. I read it on Tumblr, though, so I can't say if it's accurate. Might be worth looking into.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

I'm fairly sure that's true, although I don't get my meds from Costco, so I can't verify it 100%.

Whew! I talked to my boss about the work drama, and when I told her what I'd done "so this happened, and then I did this..." she was like "...yeah, so?" and then was like "Wait, so is the project manager complaining, or just the site?" and I was like "Reallllly just the site" and she was like "Oh, OK. Yeah, be good"
...now if only that was motivation to get cracking on work. Though I do feel more awake this morning than sometimes. I gotta remember to use my blue light more often/always, I do think it helps.

smonster, I meant to say earlier that I hope today isn't too difficult for you, and that you're able to sleep tonight.

She is a member of Costco. I'll ask her.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Learned helplessness is sad to watch, Laura. And you can't fix someone who has it. Another practical suggestion that might be of use for your sister is to contact the drug manufacturer - sometimes they have coupons or vouchers for discounts. All the drug manufacturers claim that they don't want anyone going without medications just because the meds are too expensive.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I think those vouchers are usually for newer drugs that don't have generics, but you can always check.

You guys, really. Thank you. I'd cry again but my eyelids are just losing that bee stung look, so no. juliana, Costco had a wake up light on sale over Xmas but I was didn't budget well enough to get it. But I save my coins and trade them in with Coinstar to get Amazon gift credits, so maybe soon.
Today is going really well. I am being careful to stay focused and ask questions to make sure I'm doing what the PM thinks I should. No one is being rude or giving me sideeye. And with that lunch is over. Toodles.

The status is NOT quo.
Yay good day, smonster!
I too had a better day. I'm feeling like crap after this many days off meds, but I was able to get a sample pack from my doc and take one at lunch, and of course the mail order also finally showed up. I'm hopeful I'll be feeling normal by tomorrow. Thanks for the words of support.

Go, smonster! I'm glad you had a good day, and I hope you have another good day tomorrow.
~ma, sj. (Is it wrong that I hope you stoner post?)
Thanks, and no not wrong. I'm hoping to be quite out of it, because I don't like pain.

Oh, the tide is turning! I also made some progress on my sister's issues. My flaky mind recalled that one of my good friends is a pharma rep, and his sister a psychiatrist. They have been friends of mine for a couple decades. Anyway, my sister is on the opposite coast, but he basically said that if we can manage to get a formal consult then she can do what it takes to get her meds straight. Have some bureaucratic hoops to wrangle, but it is doable.
