Moments of Permanence - Things are not always as bad as you expect them to be

Huh, I didn't have to go through drug testing to go on dexies. I did have to go through three sleep trials, though, but more time consuming and very little embaressment.

There was a bunch of paperwork, but nothing more than you'd expect. Obviously, you are actually a crackwhore. Or maybe I'm clearly too boring to be a crackwhore.
(Sorry you had to go through that :P)

By your mention of sleep trials, I'm assuming it wasn't for an AD(H)D diagnosis. It's the specific thing - the Health Department takes the cynical view that they're expecting people will fake AD(H)D symptoms in order to get the meds, which is going to be less likely with other diagnoses that lead to prescribing dexies.
