So "lying to get a treatment that alleviates the symptoms of their medical condition in a system that punishes honesty" is substance abuse now?

I literally wish every time I go to the doctor that stimulants didn't get non-ADHD people high so I wouldn't have to deal with this crap.

> If one of my reports used work resources to collude for substance abuse I would do everything I can to fire them.

They actually used work resources to discuss medical treatments so firing them over this would likely be very illegal.

> Strategizing on how to lie is unacceptable to me.

Where are you getting this? Who lied?

I assume that you've sought medical care and been criticized for it, and now spread that unfortunate rhetoric to others?
