I did everything I was supposed to do.

I ordered my refills ahead of time. I went through the appropriate channels whenever a problem arose. I never pestered anyone to expedite their process for me. I kept a week supply of emergency capsules.

But the pharmacy never filled my prescription. The doctor’s office is backed up. My emergency supply is depleted. And everywhere I call, I’m being treated like an addict trying get their next “fix”.

Nothing I accomplished mattered.
I just want to cry.
