In the same boat. I've been off it for months now and it's been the worst time I've had in a while. I lost my job pretty quickly and just can't keep track of time all day.
It's so tough to stay on top of making the phone calls every 30 days to fill it, and now figuring out what meds are actually available and what would work for me that I've pretty much given up at this point.
- junofan 4y agoIt’s disgusting that psychiatric medication is lumped in with opiates by the DEA and subject to many of the same hamfisted policies.
- PraetorianGourd 4y agoOpiates are incredibly effective at treating debilitating pain. Not headaches, not toothaches, but overwhelming “please just kill me” pain. I take adderall with a prescription but I am not going to pretend that my psychological needs are somehow more worthy of medication than another’s pain. You want to get real angry? Cannabis and psilocybin are both schedule I drugs while cocaine is schedule II. I know cocaine has medical uses and is unfairly maligned, but still.
- catchnear4321 4y agoYou do yourself and others a disservice by treating physical pain as “more real” than the psychological pain that can be caused by simply not functioning the way one wants and knowing a restricted pill could help. Comparing one’s pain to another is meaningless, if the pain of both can be treated. Pain isn’t necessary. It is enforced.
