my dental insurance which already barely covers nothing has charged me a $500 bill for an xray that used to be covered, i need like 1k to get my wisdom teeth out, i need like 6k for adult braces if i don't want to lose more teeth, and i was forced to reschedule an appointment today despite having driven all the way there and told them i'd be about 10 minutes late...

i am wracking up more and more bills and i had two horrific autistic meltdowns today. I don't know how I'm supposed to do this.
I can't even enjoy art right now cause i'm so exhausted and so stressed trying to figure out how the hell i'm supposed to save my teeth and not go into massive debt paying off dental BS when I don't have an income.
I've been trying to get my dental stuff covered for 3 years now between doing comissions and e-begging, i even tried running a fundraiser to get my wisdom teeth out and a partial denture like 2 or 3 years ago.. i maybe got like $200 total?? which wasn't even like a sixth of what i needed... and now the pain from my wisdom teeth has gotten so severe i struggle to eat and have daily migraines and yet I can't do anything about it cause i can't afford it..

"what about going to a dental school" it's way too far and they won't allow me to bring someone if i'm able to get them to provide transportation[it's not a for sure they will since they don't like to provide transportation for people who can technically drive], sprinkle in some dental trauma and autism i'd likely end up in the hospital afterwards between meltdowns and panic attacks

anyway i'm desperate and exhausted so if you like my art and want to see me continue making art instead of having a breakdown and not drawing again for a long time, perhaps consider donating to me or commissioning me
