Is COBRA worth it after a layoff? - 9 months and counting

I was offered COBRA and the monthly cost is more than I expected as a pharmacy technician. I have been trying to stay organised about it. My old employer will not help with the premium. Is the decision time really that tight?

I priced both side by side: total yearly cost, doctors in network and the deductible. Marketplace was cheaper for us, but only because our doctors were covered.
