This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

OR, much more realistically, Anon: has a problem, tries every at home/ otc option available which all fail miserably, goes to doc who does doc things, doc things work a little too well (at least until ones body aquires the tolerance of an elephant after only five doses), Anon discovers the agonizing and frustrating experience of sleep disorders.

Source: been there, done that. So. Many. Fucking. Times.

There is rarely an easy remedy for this shit, only things that help and things that do not. A doctors only job is to help you figure out what those things are, if they are not, replace them but don't avoid them.

Yep. I feel like people expect doctors to figure it out first try. That's not how it works, everyone is different.
