I'm seriously pushing Sam-e on people these days. You can get it at the drugstore or Wal-Mart, and for me, it's worked better than any Rx I've ever taken (and believe me, I've tried a gazillion of them). As a single mom, we often did reduced fee lunches, because we fit the income bracket. School supplies we got at the dollar store, and the fees sometimes just had to wait. Maybe if you call the school and explain your situation, they'll be understanding. Boy, am I advicey today. Good luck with all of this!
