    I have been doing a lot of meditating lately, and generally trying to be more mindful. I have noticed it has improved my attention span and ability to concentrate - or at least notice quickly when my thoughts drift and come back to my target. It’s pretty cool, and I really hope I can maintain it.

    But things are not without yuck. My husband’s insurance changed, and we now have a $4,000 deductible on our prescriptions. And we both have expensive prescriptions. So there goes $4k, not counting co-insurance. I’m weirdly calm about it - you know, because of all the meditating - but it is a major fucking upset to our budgeting.

      Sorry about the insurance. It absolutely sucks when it feels like the copayments get more expensive and the coverage is less. Doubly so when there aren’t a lot of options for insurance to begin with. Glad you’ve found some solace with the meditating.

      Is there any help to be had on the prescription prices? Good rx or local resources? This sounds terrible and I am so sorry you have this unexpectedly thrust upon you.
