The good news with the capitalist drug system is patents wear out after a while, so the manufacturers are continuously “researching” “new and improved” drugs, so likely there will be new medication in the future (isn’t it around a 20 year cycle?).

Yes, and hopefully even faster than that! AI will (potentially) speed up a lot of research, while new fields like personalized medicine (using your DNA to tailor treatment) might completely overhaul how some illnesses are treated.

I wish I could still get valium.

I hate how like I can't do things because other people have problems.

Trust me they're doing you a favor, benzo addiction is gnarly, and the road to addiction is littered with "Heh, it happened to those plebs, but I can control it" types.

I am not in danger of that, and I'm tired of living in fear that I would be just because weak people are.

Bro, I've been taking valium by doctors prescription since the 1980s, meaning, I have asked for it, and gotten it like 5 times in the last 40 years.

I also have 6 hydrocodone sitting in a bottle on my desk from back surgery like a year ago.

I have made great sacrifices in my life and freedoms to protect people like you.

And I don't want your thanks because none of you all have ever given it once.
