You wouldn't pirate a medicine, would you?

The shortage is happening internationally. I am in Australia. I would have to pay money to see a psychiatrist again to change meds. I would need to restart a 12 month period where my GP can't be the prescriber.

Prescription medication advertisements are illegal here too, so I think I just extra don't appreciate unsolicited medication advice. I get you're trying to be helpful. However, I did not ask for help.

I've tried enough meds in my life to know which ones work. Vyvanse is the only things that does. But if you mean it genuinely, while it's in stock atm I've been skipping some days a week. I now have a 3 month supply saved up so 🤞

No, I do mean that genuinely.

Your initial reply rubbed me the wrong way since I was trying to help but that doesn't mean I don't wish you luck! Everyone's situation is different and i know fuck-all about Australia's healthcare system lol
