I’ve had enough of Doctor shopping. You go to a Doctor for a prescription for Ambien, a two week supply, you go through said supply in one week and it’s back to square one, another Doctor for another prescription. Plus there’s an element of acting involved, you need to be pushy but not too pushy. The cat is already out of the bag the minute you walk in to the surgery “This guy’s after more Ambien” the Doctors thinking and rightly so. Another horror involved is creating aliases, phony addresses, false date of births and then trying to remember which one corresponds to the Doctor you’re visiting. I fucked up yesterday and gave the wrong date of birth, the receptionist got suspicious but somehow I talked my way into a Consultation. Never again, I’m calling time on the horrors of Doctor shopping, from now on my prescription will last as long as it should come hell or high water.

how is this possible exactly? Which part of the world are you posting from?
I was wondering the ID thing too.
Space out the P word you’re using and try again
I’ve never had a doctor really ask me to confirm my identity…. Never been asked to present any form of ID ever…. Which is actually really strange, I never have thought of this before now…. I would assume that they should or are supposed to, I’ve been carded when picking up a prescription like exactly once too….
Rainwatch, Not in all cases but what you do is tell them you need a stronger dose, example 5mg not strong enough i need 10mg so you get 100 pills twice as strong then just split them in half, if you are an addict and will gobble them up forget it just dry out! 🙂
Ambien??
I walk into an urgent care and say, “Yo, gimme ambien.” and they’re like, “Here ya go. Weren’t you here yesterday? Here’s another prescription for safe measure.”
I know I need a sh*t ton of ambien so I can overdose for a peaceful suicide but I am terrified of doctors so I keep the f*ck away from them. When I was in high school I used to think I’d get a PhD and be a doctor. Funny that I am terrified of them now.
