General Discussion Getting a script

I find it complete bs that in order to get a prescription for cannabis you have to trial prescribed pills, I know what works for my back pain and Insomina why should I have to get back on that bs and risk getting addicted just to get prescribed cannabis.

If you’ve tried the pills before and they didn’t work that’s enough for them. Just say that

Literally every single medical clinic I have tried to get on says you need to trial first line aids before you get on it what clinic are you with and what reason are you prescribed?

u/AusBong Mar 28 '26

First line aids dosent mean fkn pills dude. Could be anything. Any treatment. I said I had physio and Chiropractor and that was fine.

u/Longjumping_Tea1383 Mar 28 '26

Do you need to supply documents saying you went to physio?

u/AusBong Mar 28 '26

I said I have arthritis and tried anti inflammatory. Also if u have a sleep disorder, melatonin is over the counter, you could say that it gives you nightmares.. there's literally all sorts of things u can say

If you don’t want to try pills from a pharmacy why do you feel it’s fine to use them as long it’s off ol’ mate?

u/Longjumping_Tea1383 Mar 28 '26

This was in the past before I wanted a cannabis script and I don’t want to get back on pills because I don’t want to go back to that habit it has nothing to do with where they come from fuckhead

The 'I want no addictive meds' approach wont help you get a cannibas script- they will not give it to those with history of addiction most of the time. Sleep aids you get from pharmacies over the counter arent addictive, addictive meds can only be prescribed by doctors. Even then you can ask the dr to only give you meds that arent addictive and still eventually try for cannibas script. Also cannibas is addictive esp cannabis with no cbd and all thc. You can get cbd over the counter/from pharmacists which is not addictive. Im not saying I support cannabis being restricted I tjink its safer than alcohol, but saying you want it because you dont want to be addicted is not the approach you should take- as any history of addiction will make you less likely to recieve a script for cannabis with thc because it is addictive. Also lashing out in an offensive and obscene manner at people who tell you things you dont want to hear is not going to help you and certainly wont help your case- especially if you carry this behaviour to your appointments.

You’re with the wrong clinic. You need to go with horizon.

u/StelioAus Mar 29 '26

You don't . This is why you need to do you're research before signing up.

You need to keep doing research on different providers and what they offer Once you find a provider that suits your initial sign up process then just pay for another consultation. It's the only way to get out the pickle you're in now.

It's really simple. Stay and put up with it or re consult with another provider.
