   Anyone have an estimate for me about how much per month antidepressants would be out of pocket?
   
   I just realized that my brother's suicide after his divorce coincided with his unlawful termination from his job (they worked together; it was messy) so he would have lost his health insurance.
   
   My brother told me his doctor cut him off before he died but I just realized he probably couldn't afford the prescription.
   
   Fuuuuuck

     @kaniini @pie that pretty much confirms big pharma was complicit. So both my brother and my dad could still be alive.
     
     Crazy. We gotta fix this.

     @fluffy thanks for the advice, but I was just looking for details that better explain events up to my brother's death years ago. Realized he lost he insurance before it happened.

     @fluffy I'm certain he didn't and his claim that his doctor cut off his antidepressants cold turkey was a coverup
