I am going to need medication, I won't have health insurance. I am addicted to the medication. The medication is too much money ($180 for a month, plus doctors fees). What do I do?
I am not poor, I juts have no health insurance! Wasting all that cash on the medication sounds like a bad idea.

you may be able to get state insurance since you are a student. The problem is is that the medicine you are addicted to if it is not medically necessary they won't pay for it. If it's pain meds or something like that they are real sticklers it would help if you included what type of meds and for what condition.

What are you addicted to, ativan, xanaxx, klonopin, what? I say slowly withdraw the drug, whatever it is, by taking slivers off each day. If not, and anyways, apply for your state's funded health care coverage, such as Medicaid. You don't have to be poor, but you can't have more than two grand in assets. And some drugs can cause serious withdrawal reactions if they are abruptly stopped. Make sure you have enough in supply to gradually reduce the dosage.
And for all you people that already answered, health care coverage is scarce; not many jobs offer decent coverage, and that's only after you've been there for a few months that you are offered it.

Get a job like the rest of us... sorry. Or, if you have another source of income you can get independent insurance, but it's going to be kind of costly.
Starbucks offers health coverage, most places do, just go get a job.
Welcome to the real world.
