Ill and unhappy

June 21, 2006 9:46am CST
I am looking for a helpline that I am able to speak to on line as I can't from home as my husband works for BT and checks all my call. I can't call from work as there is no privicy I am desperately unhappy. I have just been discharged from the Brompton Hospital, and l have been told that I have a smokers disease and I have never smoked in my life. I am on all different medication but as I earn a low wage I am sometimes unable to fill my prescription because I simply do not have enough funds. My husband earns at least 3 times more than I simply don't bother. My family all live abroad in America, I get no help in the house and I am tired. So tired. Where do I turn for help???

Try using the Internet and type in "Help Line." Do you have medical coverage where you work? If so, will it pay for your medication? What disease do you have? Information about it will be available on the Internet as well. Do you contribute to the household funds? If so, use some of that money for your medication. If your husband is abusing you or not taking care of you, consider leaving. Could your family help with the medication?

I would go to social services in your area and talk to an administrator there and they will be able to help you out, I believe that the social services dept is free. Good Luck and God Bless
