We spent a whole hour talking, went over a lot, my history, which includes no drug abuse outside of smoking nicotine, some weed, and drinking alcohol.

She ended by saying we’d need to form a longer relationship, and, that I’d need to submit to regular drug tests.

Considering my history, the only thing I can come to, is that she’s irrational about weed, or, she’s making assumptions about my addiction risk thanks to autism.

She lied to me, and told me regular drug tests were standard for Vyvanse, having looked this up, I knew that wasn’t true, I turned her down and asked to work with someone else. I don’t care to submit to this sort of control. I’m upset that someone like her was in a position of power, now I have to wait for the VA to assign me another doc… Great, cool, I guess my life will remain on hold because someone with conservative views about drugs and autism is in a position they shouldn’t be.

Don’t tell me I should just do it, I have standards, and I looked this up.

      And I never said you said it was.

      The poster earlier in this thread did, which is what this discussion is about.

        The guy I replied to was stating that they assume anyone smoking weed isn’t doing so illegally as the majority of places it is no longer illegal

        My point was that it is still illegal federally so technically they’re wrong. It’s not just being pedantic either, certain federal level shit can be fucked up for you if you test positive or are caught with it in certain places.

        This was not a discussion pertaining to the top level stuff, that’s why it was a reply to a non top level comment
