My brain is fried. One more to go and things can slow down a tiny bit.

Also, I'm so fucking sick of pharmacists treating me like dirt because of what's on my safe script.

What's the point of being in healthcare if you're going to be judgemental about what medication people take?

Same issue with nurses. I guess everyone needs someone to look down on.

Fucking scumbags.

Just pure racism and classism at its finest. You're on a 'controversial' medication and aren't a white man. That's it, that's all it is. I want to slap every healthcare worker (drs, nurses, pharmacists, mental health worker) who hold those views. It's fucking gross and I'm so angry on your behalf. Fuck.

I'm sorry man, your needs are LEGITIMATE and the problem only lies with those judgy cunts.

I’ve had some amazing experiences with nurses and some downright horrible ones that shouldn’t even be working in the industry.

The least they could do is be professional and keep their thoughts to themselves but some just can’t help themselves.

I’m sorry you had to go through that. It’s never nice.

take care ,

and you don't need to justify yourself to them, you have a doctor

if you are feeling grouchy you could always tell your doc you are being harassed
