If you can't get it there is a reason. What is this med? Why would the friend sell it seeing as it makes them out earlier?
Bad all around.
Not really a reason I can't get it, beyond the fact that I'm not covered under this health care, and I cannot afford to see a GP. Health clinics here to not pass out the medication I need for my pain or anxiety.
Generally, I buy valium from a friend. He is prescribed, but only rarely takes it and, since it's valium, is given a lot at a time (this seems to be standard with valium). I use it both for my anxiety/agoraphobia, and my RLS and TMJ disorder. It's the exact drug and dosage the clinic here gave me the one time I could afford to go, before they stopped prescribing benzos at all to anyone (not even residents can be get them anymore, which we found out when my boyfriend went for his own RLS and they told him they could no longer prescribe benzos at walk-in clinics here).
It is also the exact drug and dosage my own GP back home had me on for two years. I lost my health insurance when I turned 21 (I was literally WEEKS away from hitting Obamas new law that had kids covered under parents insurance until 23, I was LIVID).
As far as drugs, I consider myself extremely well-versed. I research everything before I take it, in various ways. I'm always cautious. I don't buy anything, pharmaceutical or otherwise, from shady people. I'm sure many are against drug use of any kind, and that's fine. I use for both medicinal reasons, and because I enjoy it. But, in this case, it is something I need. I can go ages without taking it, so this isn't to feed any sort of addiction. I've never had a habit/addiction to anything in my years of drug use and experimentation. I consider myself extremely responsible.
I don't even carry these things on my person. They are kept hidden in various places in my room (various places because sometimes I'm not home and someone else is, or someone might bring someone over when I'm gone, and I'm not a trusting person).
I had talked to my mom about how cautious I am about these things. She's not a fan of drug use, and even she is impressed with how I handle myself. She's aware all of her kids have dabbled in various things, and while I've been using a larger variety of things, again medicinally and otherwise, I'm the only one that's been responsible throughout, for as long as I've had to use and chosen to use (about, hmmm, 6 years now I think, starting from when my TMJ disorder became a pain issue).
