[QUOTE="Bluey1, post: 1668853, member: 36344"] All I can say is you are very lucky where you live. Below are just a few highlights over the last 14years (I got D as an adult). [LIST] [*]I have been chased out of large shopping complex by a couple of women whom created such a fuss the real police told me if I didn't leave I would be charged with breaching the peace, I'm amazed they could see anything under the all the clothing they were wearing and I was being discreet all they saw was the pen cap, so they must have known. This apparently is far complex after talking to my local MP. [*]Marched out of the same shopping complex by rent a cops whom could hardly speak a word of English and told never to come back "you %$#@# filthy drug addict". [*]Pens confiscated by security at the domestic terminal of Australia's second largest airport and the Drs letter as well. [*]Work colleagues telling me I'm not invited to team lunches because I might inject. That was a number of years ago. [*]Lectured about how I should donate my organs including heart etc before I wilfully and deliberately destroy them (yes they were serious) and give them to someone whom will appreciate and look after them. [/LIST] If there is no convenient loo I will either not eat or skip a shot. I go onto a pump in less than 2 weeks. Then there are people with serious medical problems. I can't blood test anywhere my brother could see me or he faints. He can't go into a hospital as faints even seeing non blood product drips. [/QUOTE]
