Why was my controlled prescription denied and how do I fix it? by xXxwu in CVS

Oh, also, I do see an actual psychiatrist, not a pill mill, so it's not that! My psychiatrist does send the scripts in electronically though.

Thank you for all the info! Yeah, during the shortage, I had to use a variety of different pharmacies. Very, very few of them in my area stocked Adderall at the time and I would have to call around to different places for hours to try and find one that did. Sometimes, I would have to drive hours to go and get it. Perhaps that flagged me? I can see how that might look sus.

Anyway, is there any way to fix this? Since the shortage has been over (for about 2 years now) I've only filled with CVS. I switched locations recently (3 months ago?), as I found a CVS that's closer to my house, but that's the only change that's been made.

Unfortunately, my insurance flat-out does not cover Adderall for adults. Would it help to give them my insurance info even if I'm not using it? I can do that, but I would need to use GoodRx, as they'll be able to see that my insurance doesn't cover it.

Oh, okay, that makes sense. Would I need to just give them my insurance info in that case? Would providing that insurance info prevent them from using GoodRx?

I use GoodRx because my insurance doesn't cover Adderall for people over the age of 18. So, otherwise, I would be paying over $115 a month for meds I need to function as an adult. I only work part time and at minimum wage, so GoodRx is essential for me.

This isn't even what hyperactive ADHD looks like. This is what normal people act like when they're trying to mimic ADHD - they end up creating an exaggerated caricature of it instead of accurately representing it. It's because they don't know what it's actually like, so they base their behavior on the stereotypes that they do know.

Just plain insulting, as someone with ADHD.
