I’m scared and don’t know what to do
I'm not sure if this is the right sub for this but I really have no idea what I'm doing. I (27m) currently live in MA, and have been uninsured since I aged out of my dad's insurance in 2021. I have pretty bad anxiety, and not even knowing where to begin I neglected to get health insurance on my own (I know that's a silly reason, but that's why I'm here asking for help). I make too much to qualify for MassHealth, and, through my own anxiety about the whole process, I missed the deadline to apply for Health New England. The past few weeks, and the past few days especially, I've been extremely worried that I've been developing a hernia (there's a persistent pressure in my abdomen, no pain though). I'm terrified of potential financial ruin should I seek out a doctor or a hospital and I have no idea what to do. I'm really scared, is there anyone who could give some advice?
