Do not use inadequately tested drugs, buy only FDA approved drugs. Why do you want to forbid other people to buy drugs not approved by FDA?

I think i have a DSPS too, but instead of fighting it, i live with my cycle (around 25 hours). Impossibility to work in office hours forces me to be independent, so it's not so bad.
