No money for the doctor I need
I screwed up bad yesterday with alcohol and ambien both. I feel so anxious right now and I don't know how much is withdrawal or if any of it is. I hope I feel better with time but what if I get worse? Calling 911 seems like my only option. I'm already way behind on my bills. Any suggestions?
Also I blame my slip on not doing what I know I need to do...and that's make being sober my top priority right now. Thanks in advance to all responders

Love, an emergency room, by law, has to treat you whether you can pay or not. Your health is far more important that fear of medical bills showing up in the mailbox.
Maybe you can call some hospitals and explain that you can't pay but are in dire need. They should help.
And posting and reading here is surely won't hurt.
