Can Somebody Tell Me...

Why the hell this suprises people?!
Jesus Christ! I deal with this every day! I end up feeling guilty for being depressed, because it just means $20 lost going to the doctor, and $10 on up for the prescription, which may or may not work. God forbid my doctor recommends a therapist (another at least $20 a pop). And that's just me. My husband has Ankylosing Spondylitis, a form of arthritis that causes bone to grow and fuse the spine together (but, no, he doesn't have the associated gene: HLA/B27). Right now he has 5 different prescriptions, starting at $10. He's on disability, so if there's a medical bill (copay, whatever) that I can't pay upfront, yeah, there's a good possibility it's going to be put off.
