I just found out that my family cut me out of their insurance plan and I no longer have access to health coverage including my prescription meds for ADHD or therapy, both of which I really need right now. What are my options?

I’m a full time student under the age of 26, and my health insurance so far had been included in my family’s plan under dependent coverage extension. A few months ago I went NC with my family after they found out I was on prescription vyvanse for my ADHD, something they absolutely do not “believe in” and refused to support me. Two weeks ago, I found out that they have taken me off their health plan and have pretty much left me to fend for myself. I haven’t been able to get my meds this month and it has been awful. Since I study full time, my only means of income is a part time TA job on campus which is currently on hold since the semester has ended and some tutoring I do during my (very limited) free time. I’m struggling and on the verge of a mental breakdown and could use any advice I can get. What options do I have to get some health coverage or any assistance whatsoever? Sorry if this has been hard to read, my eyes fill up with tears anytime I try to type this out.
