So stressed about moving

Postby AppelAnnaG » Mon Apr 25, 2011 5:37 am

My anxiety level is so high lately because I am moving from one state to another and I am scared about having to reapply for medicaid and food stamp benefits. I am disabled on SSI/SSD(These are US programs for elderly, and disabled people), its my only income, and just completely freaked about the moving. As it gets closer I am sleeping less and less because my brain won't shut off thinking about it. Then I am up all day shaking and twiddling because I am scared.

Medicaid is the only reason I can afford my medicine that I need that medicare doesn't cover, and my medicare premium that I wouldn't be able to afford without it(It would be auto deducted from my Social Security). Everyone keeps telling me that they don't know because the cost of living in PA is different than in NY but if I cant get my medicaid back I cant afford living, or my health care... I only have 770 a month to pay for rent/utilities, etc.

I need some kind of peace of mind. Does someone have any advice they think might help me calm down? Any words of wisdom? Or words from experience?

Please I really need some help here...
I need sleep, It's killing me

Hi,

When you have a worry about something that is unknown, the best thing to do is find more information about it... ...You should telephone the people who organise the medicaid and food-stamps and ask them questions about moving. Don't leave this until the last moment, because by then your anxiety might be much higher than it currently is.
