Comment on The way my fuck-ass pharmacist makes up the remaining pills in my bastarding prescription
Buffalox@lemmy.world 3 days agoAlmost everything is blister packages, which I personally find a bit annoying.
We can’t even get normal pain killers without them being in blister packages, and we can only buy limited amounts to prevent teen suicide attempts by painkillers.
That part however I’m OK with, because allegedly it’s supposed to actually work. 👍 😀

Honestly, I can see that. A lot of suicides are spur-of-the-moment, and the more a person has to actively work at it, the less likely they are to actually follow through on the attempt. Even just those couple seconds of working at it to get a whole box of blister packs open could be enough for a lot of people to stop, think, and say “actually wait”.

Yes but more than that, the packages are also too small for use for suicide attempts. So you need to stack up with a few packages first too.
It’s a minor inconvenience, but I’m OK with it, because they claim it is actually working.
I never really thought so much about the time it takes to squeeze out the number of pills it takes to work. Which absolutely may be a factor too.
