Seeing the old pharmacist, anxiety and relief.

So, 6 months off of pills this coming Augustt 15th. Today my daughter had her wellness check up at another office, and low and behold the pharmacist that used to see right through me moved to the office I went to today. It brought back so many feelings, anxiety, embarrassment, shame. He was starring right at me, most likely thinking I was out doctor shopping. After going on the room, I talked with my HP and realized I can stand a little taller because I am not out begging another doctor for meds. I do not have to go to him now and give him my script, while he gives me that look. Or did he ever give me that guilt, or was that my guilt! SO, I feel good today. I feel good that I no longer that to buy pills off the street, go to doctors, or pop a pill to survive. I can personally thank SR, since this website has been my go to during this past year.

Good post - Icandoit. Stand a little taller, smile a little longer, and hold your head up high. Bet the pharmacist is happy not to be doing business with you too. Mine smiled at me and gave me a thumbs up the last time I saw her. Never a word said but I'm convinced she knew and is relieved she is not filling any scripts for me. Your screen name says it all about you.

I can actually feel everything you said in your post. I didn't get prescriptions as I found every other way possible to get what I thought I needed so no pharmacist was involved. In a previous episode - that sadly was so many years ago and yet here I am again - I used a pharmacist and any Dr. I could con. I Dr. shopped but the pharmacist knew - I know he did.

It felt awful to stand there and wait for something they knew I didn't need. Embarrassment, shame, guilt, goodbye I don't need you!
