Medicaid covers everything 100%, but ya donβt always get quality docs.

My discretion was lacking to some degree yes, but my journey with xanax began innocently. I sought it to deliver me from anxiety and nothing more. I didn't know how fucked up it made me until years later after my life had fallen apart completely, and I didn't comprehend 1/8th the totality of it until I got completely off of it.
He gave me the tools to fuck up my life, that if it weren't for him giving me these tools, I wouldn't be able to use them because I wouldn't have them. His negligence was seeing clear as day what I could not, my being as fucked up as I was and cognitive abilities going down the gutter worse and worse the longer I was on them; him seeing this downslide and not doing a damn thing about about it.
What he did was no different than a counselor giving a permission slip to the autistic kid who worships columbine shooters to buy guns and ammo underage for free from any gun shop to "blow off some steam", and then encouraging him to buy more and more every couple of months even though he's telling you that he wants to kill more and more of his friends. Is the kid liable for his actions? Yes, of course. But is the counselor not criminally liable for giving the kid the tools to fuck up his life that he wouldn't be able to obtain otherwise? Does that counselor not deserve to be blamed for doing something so incredibly reckless and damaging to the kid and potentially everyone who comes into contact with him?

American doctors sound like shitty drug dealers.
Advertisements for drugs are illegal in Europe. Ask you doctor!

They are shitty drug dealers.
I too had a bad run in with xanax when I was 16, along with my poo-poo platter of other drugs (i.e. Soma, vicodin, percocet, and a bunch of other random shit). I was the one who decided to take them, and then took them all fucked up, after realizing it was fucking me up, and this was not a good thing... I KNEW benzo Withdrawal was horrible from accounts, but I still was stupid enough to fuck with it.
It wasn't the doctor. I legitimately had terrible anxiety attacks. Sure, there are other things that may help in the long term, but for short term, ZAP! be-gone-panic-attack drug, then benzos are the #1 answer and have been used for a long time. It also is safe taken by itself, although I wasn't taking it by itself...
I genuinely did need something, just not in the quantity. That was my fault for taking them like that though... I don't blame the doctor, I blame myself.
We need to be accountable for our own choices. I could have just as easily became an alcoholic, which is similar and no better than benzos. I could have done other stupid shit. Access to a drug doesn't make shit worse, if anything it makes it better. If drugs are readily availthere will be less taboo and more resources in the mainstream that can warn people of the dangers, the LEGIT dangers, not the propaganda dangers (i.e. if you smoke weed you'll axe murder your family, like they did in the 70's)
Some people are just destined to go down a dark road and/or learning experience. It is what it is. It's up to ourselves to dig ourselves out of the mistakes we make, and blaming others isn't the answer. I own my fuck ups.

benzo addiction sucks
i still get physical cravings for them years later. psychological cravings being more like "this was awesome i need this" and physical cravings are like "ive been dehydrated in the desert for years and xanax is my water"
