Does it really work to take medicine when you're upset?

i mean like how people “pop pills” and stuff when they’re mad/sad sorry i should’ve explained it better!

You’re asking whether abusing dr.ugs is a good idea? Do you expect anyone to tell you that abusing a dr.ug is a good idea? How do you think people become dr.ug addicts? Prescription pills are the most abused dr.ug at the moment. And yes, of course certain dr.ugs do get you high. Then you need more to get high. Then you just need them because you just do. And at that point they are creating the pain, anger, sadness. It really is a vicious cycle. Your question is interesting because I’ve always wondered how people become addicted to her.oin. I mean everyone knows how bad it is. And yet, people still start using it. It’s amazing. And if you think you’d never use that, certain prescription painkillers are basically her.oin in a more acceptable form. They’re just as addictive and deadly.

i never asked if it was a good idea? and i never said i was going to do it, i always hear about people doing it and i was curious k; thanks.

You asked whether it was bad to do it. Like I said, did you expect anyone to say it was good to do it? As for the ‘you’ I used, it was a more general you, to all people who are ‘curious’.

no, i asked HOW BAD it would be, like as in would you die or is it minor effects.

Depends on the medication. There’s a reason doctors go to school for 8 years and then have residency for another 3-8. They learn all about the different ways dr.ugs interact with the body. And yes, people die from misusing pills all the time. Most don’t. But many do. And really, there’s no need to back pedal. I’m not saying I’ve never taken a dr.ug to feel better. I sincerely doubt that there are very many people who drink who could say they’ve never had a drink to make them feel better.

I take xanax when i feel a terrible mood swing or know I will be in a stressful situation. I see no problem with it. It helps those around me, too.
