@Nomis's post on Artfol

I was cramping so hard today at school I just wanted to go home. The school doesn’t allow kids to bring their own medicine like ibuprofen or take it without supervision even for that. But I sneak it anyways because the nurse doesn’t even have ibuprofen, only Tylenol which makes me sleepy in school and is not good.
I just need to complain to someone

That sounds insane. And backwards. Why would anyone not allow to bring your own medication. That doesn't sound legal.
I once got caught with ibuprofen in high school. Drug dog sniffed it out. They detained me thinking it was weed or smth and then they found it was just a bag of slightly crushed ibuprofen tablets that I used for (yup) menstrual cramps and they were like "ok we'll let you go THIS time but you have to register that as a medication you are allowed to take with a doctor's note yada yada"
I ignored it and they never did catch me again. Lmao.
That’s an absolutely nonsense rule, I’m sorry :(
I bring ibuprofen to school too a lot of people do you just have to make sure they don't see you take it I usually just bring it with me to the bathroom to take it if I have to with my water bottle and say I'm gonna refill my water or something

or if it's in the cafeteria with a lot of people I just do it bc they probably won't see me out of like a third of the school in that room and single me out
