I'd like to just echo some of the most important points addressed by members here:

1) Many, many, many of the jobs younger people find available to them DO NOT have insurance available. Even if they do, the cost of even endorsed premiums on these jobs are exorbitant compared to the salary or wages we get.

2) Local physicians don't prescribe the types of meds we need, and if they do, the script is usually for 15 tabs and non-refillable. If I'm not mistaken, this entire board is dedicated to helping each other find ways to take care of our medical needs in the ways that our local doctors can or will not.

3) I order from IOPs. Sure, it's more risky, but successes with these businesses by far outnumber the failures. None of the IOPs I've used require medical records.

I understand everyone's concern for a the possibility of a child ordering potentially dangerous drugs online, but I will repeat again again what was said above: Old enough to vote, old enough to die for your country, old enough to die at the hands of the tobacco companies, shoud mean old enough to purchase both alcohol and, to be honest, the less insidious drugs available online.
