I got great news on Friday. Well, better than great. Fucking fantastic news, to be perfectly honest. I received notice that I have been approved for full Medicaid and it is like massive weight taken off of my shoulders. I can now get the physical health care and continue to get the mental health care I need.
But this is what Republicans and their conservative allies don't want. They don't want the millions of Americans who need health insurance to get it. They have fought and will continue to fight tooth and nail to take away and prevent the 99% from getting the medical and mental health care we need. They are willing to condemn millions of Americans to a life of abject misery. If they had their way, I would never have received Medicaid because it wouldn't exist.
I wish I didn't need the help of the government via Medicaid, but I do and I am grateful that the help was there and is now available to me. Now I don't need to beg my parents each month for money to pay for my psychiatrist and therapist visits. Now I don't need to beg friends to help pay for my medication. And now, I can have the host of physical health problems looked at properly and maybe taken care of.
I have hope. I have some direction now. I am no longer so lost.
