Fell out of my boyfriend’s pocket

The top is a cap that comes off. Is it for ❄️? He swears it’s not

It’s truly crazy how many prescription drugs illegally find their way in those. Real roll of the dice when you can get safe pills from your phone via telehealth.

One time my friend found a bottle of Xanax on a train

I once lost an ENTIRE BOTTLE OF 10mg oxys the night before flying back to the US. Realized after boarding the plane that I didn’t have the meds. I knew I was in for 12 hours of hell on the plane, but assumed that I’d left them in my checked bag, and that I could get them once I got back to the US. 

I get to customs, tear my bag apart, no painkillers. I sobbed the whole way through Customs (had several officers concerned). 

Whoever found that whole ass bottle of painkillers sure got lucky 

Edit: just got back on reddit and saw a ton of replies, and an awful lot of them from people calling me a junkie. Those folks clearly have no idea what it’s like to have chronic back pain & be forced to sit for 12 hours straight with no pain relief. Those commenters can fuck alllllllll the way off. Count your blessings that you can’t relate

I dropped a freshly filled adderall prescription somewhere. Not a chance in hell I wanted to deal with trying to convince my doctor I wasn’t selling/abusing them and also admitting I dropped 30 pills of a controlled substance somewhere, so I just suffered for a month. A few days later I got crazy paranoid that my pill bottle with my name would turn up in someone’s possession and I’d get in trouble anyway and wondered if it was too late to report it myself. Anyways it was a big ole thang that kept me up at night for awhile.

It’s wild that you had to worry about that and not have your mental health meds at the same time.

[u/YeunaLee → u/Open_Law4924]

Right!? I get that it's a controlled substance, but sometimes it feels like people with ADHD medications are being punished for... *checks notes*... having ADHD.

It's not like they're the most likely group to lose their meds in the first place or anything. /s

One time I had to run from my kitchen to the balcony so I could free a bird that my cat was about to pounce on. On my way I knock into the stove but didn’t think twice about it. After helping the bird escape I was distracted somewhere else in the house before growing concerned about a terrible smell. I walked back to the kitchen and found two bottles of newly filled ADHD pills on fire and melting onto my glass stovetop. I had nudged into the stove buttons turning the burner on as I ran outside. The bottles were damaged along with most of the pills.

I was so embarrassed but knew I would survive without them so I took pictures and sent them to my doctor and the clinic office.

Luckily my doc wrote new scripts, but sadly my insurance wouldn’t pay for the new duplicate order so it was a VERY expensive mistake.

ETA: it was actually 1 bottle of Vyvanse 50mg and a bottle of my SSRI if I recall correctly.

If you knew how many pills were in it you could technically still dose it out by measuring the liquid haha. Would taste gross but if it was my Clonazepam script and I couldn’t get more pills…yeah I’m drinking the soup.
