“So, until my situation improved enough for me to get off opioids, I was to be denied entrance into the very clinic that would, assumedly, provide me with a safe and effective alternative to opioids.”

This makes me want to scream. Not as much as it made you want to scream, I’m sure. And nice work on the customized hospitalization! I’m keeping that in my back pocket in case I ever need it.

I suppose I was distracted by a variety of frustrations at the time, but yes! Lots of screaming involved.

Thanks for reading.

Fun fact: Some hospitals even have ice cream or frozen lemonade available to patients! They just don’t tell you this 🤪
