It seems like the whole world takes some type of prescription drug. But is that accurate? Do you?

Note: The type of medication you take or your medical diagnosis is not important to this discussion.

I tried but they keep saying no.

One of my co-workers have schizophrenia (lovely chap), I've told him to tell his psy about this dude he knows (me) who keeps telling that he wrote the whole Beatles discography and gave it to Lennon-McCartney...and even that doesn't work.

Je suis cuit.

I don't even take aspirin when I have a headache. Usually a big glass of water and a rest and it goes away.
Or, I self-medicate with alcomohol.......

If insulin counts, then multiple times a day.

Yes, five different ones, insulin not included. I'd love to discard them all if I only could .

Usually two, currently three.  

I'm very happy that I was born in the era of modern medical science. About ten years ago my thyroid gland just stopped working. Thanks to 100 micrograms per day of levothyroxine this now has zero impact on my life. Without it I'd eventually have died, though I'd probably have gone mad first.

When a medic prescritps me some drugs, it's for a very short time, like when one gets the flu and has to take some medications for a week or so.
Yet, since diabeetus runs in my father's family, I'm afraid I would have to be on insulin when I'm older (unless I really keep a more strict sugarless diet) Ermm
