The term “drug-seeking behavior” is so funny to me on the surface. Like, it’s not funny in actuality because it is often used severely ableist, racist and classist undertones. But. Aren’t most patients seeking drugs? Like, 95% of all emergency room patients wouldn’t be there if they didn’t need medication urgently. Be it antibiotics, antiemetics, fever reducers or, and yes some people need those, painkillers. If they could stick this one out at home without drugs, they probably wouldn’t have drug their ass to the doctor’s.
ALTfuuuuuuuuck
