Aaaaaand sometimes is a "controlled substance" so you have to get a new prescription every month. No 90 day supply, refills, or auto renew. 🥲

I can deal with calling to get a new prescription every month but all the other bullshit that comes with my medication being a controlled substance is what I fucking hate. Oh we are sorry but your prescription is out of stock because the DEA is worried about diversion... Oh and don't call other pharmacies because you are shopping pharmacies and now we are going to flag you...

Also god forbid you might need to refill early if you're going out of town or something. I knew they'd get weird about that so I just refilled it late when I got back and they made me piss in a cup for two months in a row. For refilling late because that could indicate I was selling it apparently???? I still get so upset remembering it. I can't believe how they're allowed to treat us sometimes.

I think that's a sign you are selling because if you aren't taking your medicine to sell it then it becomes a touch harder to remember when you are supposed to actually be out (which completely ignores how ADHD effects people)
