No the kid ain't mine and no she was not lying. She is on more meds than you could believe. Every "problem" she has, there is a doctor prescribing a pill for it. Who knows if the doctors are even coordinating information on her. I doubt it.
I have even seen it with my own doctor. He keeps pushing drugs and I keep pushing back. Most amusing to see the expression on his face. I guess the rest of his patients feel cheated if they don't walk out of the office with a script. When I do push back, he backs down and tells me that I really don't need this drug. Then why did you mention it in the first place! I am entrusting my life to you, doctor.
The military used to be bad about the pill pushing. Up until relatively recently, you could not refuse the drugs either. I have heard that this has changed.
But you are right, I was only mentioning girls because that's what I observed. But I am sure that adults are right there with them.
Any problem, any difficulty, there is a pill or four for that.
It is a good thing that there is not a big business in developing and producing prescription drugs in this country..........oh.
