I'm not really into working with pdocs that hate me. One actually threw me out and fired me because I had been self-medicating with morphine. Didn't seem fair, but, oh well. Addicts need psychiatric care too. At least that's what I thought. I wonder what he would have done if I had gone out and topped myself. Irresponsible, I think.
