i've had a stuffy nose since like the spring time, i thought maybe i've developed allergies and tried some OTC allergy pills but they only worked once in awhile. I dont have insurance to go see a doctor but does anyone else know what this might be?

That's a long time to have a stuffy nose. It may be allergies by something in your home? I've also heard of mold making cold like symptoms that never go away. Nasal cancer? Yo should really fork out the money to get checked out. Try some vicks vapo rub in some boiling water and cover your head with a towel over the pot of vapo mixture. breath in your nose for 10 min or so.

A stuffy nose by itself is a common indication that you have allergies but there could be some underlying unknown issues.
I would suggest that you admit yourself to some college or get employed at a hospital, even if it is doing something simple, that way you will cualify for health insurance.
Depending on your situation, you might be elligible for inscurance through the state so try to ask another question that will lead you to the answer on how to obtain medical insurace based on your circumstances.
Ask here on yahoo too.

I'd definitely see a doctor if it's been this long.... it could be your adenoids.
My brother-in-law had to have his removed. He thought he just had a stuffed up nose, but his adenoids were enflamed so much that he couldn't breathe through his nose.
