Confessions thread

[PastryOfApathy]

I never said you faked having a mental illness to get drugs. My issue is that you're bullshitting your doctor in order to increase your prescription so you can abuse drugs.
People like you are why people like me are faced with "we do not hand out prescription" signs at doctors office
I remember I was in there getting Xanax and this dude came in complaining about his neck that was sooooo sooooorrre broooooo, i think i need oxy contin. he was bullshitting an injury, but i have no respect for people who abuse prescription drugs.

Well considering a psychiatrist's job is to give prescriptions I don't see how I'm fucking up anything. It's not like a psychiatrist is just going to not do their job because someone bullshits a little.

Although I will never partake in recreational drug use, I feel that some people may never attain higher states of being without them. Some people are just too restricted mentally to do so without a bit of "help".

Typical elitist response from a self-reightous person. Some of the greatest minds have used psychedelics to enhance their consciousness. I'm not buying your rhetoric. They too must have taken them because they were inadequate. In my humble opinion, I'm willing to bet that someone who has taken psychedelic drugs responsibly is perhaps better off than you intellectually. After all, they actually understand their effects and can attest to a valid experience. You on the other hand - well I guess you can keep on blowing smoke. Human beings have been consuming psychedelics for thousands of years to use as stepping stones to connect with their spirits and perceived spirits above our understanding. They have also taken them just to get fucked up. I fail to see how that is wrong so long as they aren't hurting anyone. It's the same primitive behavior that drives you to intoxicate your mind with alcohol. Different tool, same desire, wayyyy less practical. You don't have to like drugs man, that's perfectly okay! But watch your condescending mouth because quite frankly, nobody likes it when their intelligence is insulted. You wouldn't want to hurt my feelings now would you...would you?

Uhhh
Yes
Yes, a responsible psychiatrist will not up a dosage if they believe someone is abusing drugs.
Do you think I don't fucking know this shit. I have to sit down in a meeting with my doctor every single time I go in to get a refill of Xanax. I have to do this because of people like you, who bullshit and cheat their way into upping drugs to fill an addiction.

Wow, it's almost as if I have to do the same fucking thing! Wow! Don't go off on people if when you don't know all the details.

Yeah but the difference between you and I is that I don't bullshit to my doctor. You bullshit during these meetings and are the reason these meetings even happen. I don't want to sit in a fucking discussion with my doctor, I have social anxiety and take xanax for it. I want to be in and out of there in 5 seconds, not have my doctor prod me to see if I'm addicted to Xanax and trying to up my dosage.
Whatever dude. Maybe one day you'll become full blown addicted to your meds and I'll just laugh and say I told you so.

Am I missing something? It sounded like he was on your side...

 

[Percy-Lyn]

Can we NOT be hostile at one another in the Confessions thread please? If you have to argue, it should probably be in PMs. I kinda thought of this thread as a sort of "Safe place".

You can spare 10-15 minutes of your life.

Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU!

Seemed condescending to me. He'll be okay either way. It's only two strangers on the internet after all!

Yeah no, you don't understand Social Anxiety Disorder. I need to take Xanax beforehand, just to go see him.

I was, which is why it was weird reading that response, haha.

I don't think drugs are for everyone, but there are benefits to be had to people who use them responsibly.

 

[Percy-Lyn]

I think responsible use is the biggest point. I've never taken any drugs, and the hardest thing I'd ever want to take would be mary-J (maybe ecstasy if somebody had a consistent formula), but I think that people should have the right to enjoy drugs as long as they aren't harming anybody else or becoming self-destructive with the habit.


There are very few physical pleasures in this world, why should we limit what few of them we can access?


Again, responsible use. An adult who's doing it out of choice doesn't need to be babied.

We have a Rants and Raves section. Use it.

I confess that I've grown up and witnessed drug addicts abusing prescription medication to such extent that they looked like literal zombies. These zombies would come over and try to get money, pills, etc off of me and my family.
These upstanding citizens of society then go off to the doctor's office and lie to get more prescription medication. If they aren't able to bullshit their way through a doctor's office, they will steal pills off of their elderly parents.
I confess that these people are the reason why I and many others have such difficulty getting prescription medication from doctors, and I confess that this is the exact reason why it took me seven years to finally muster up the courage to see one, only to be on the verge of walking away when I saw a sign on the door put up to discourage prescription drug abusers.
I confess that I love the thought of a prescription drug abuser turning into the zombie metamorphosis. They become almost braindead, shuffling around and being sneaky. Eventually they look like they've aged 30 years or so and their skin begins to turn a greyish blue colour. Not sure why this is but I confess that I love it.
Eventually they die from it (they all do, all of them. met many who died from it) and nobody really cares.

Good enough for you?

 

[Kleric]

Y'all need to chill the fuck out and read a book or something.

Edit: I confess I don't read books that often at all.

This is a discussion forum.

Get the fuck outta here if you cannot handle a civil agrument.

There's a difference between a civil *argument and just being hostile.

Do we have to dance around the issue not to be hostile? What is your definition?

You came too early. Is...is that your confession?

I'm not being hostile.
I've been infracted and banned more times than I can count. I know what hostile is.
That being said, I'm willing to drop the discussion now.

That's probably for the best for everyone. Thank you.
We can change the discussion to something else, like... Iroh from The Last Airbender. That old guy is awesome. I wanna hang out and drink tea with him.
