Note that people in US/UK and presumably other places can buy drugs on the grey market (e.g. here) for less than standard prices. Although I wouldn’t trust these 100%, they should be fairly safe because they’re certified in other countries like India; gwern wrote about this here for modafinil and the basic analysis seems to hold for many antidepressants. The shipping times advertised are fairly long but potentially still less hassle than waiting for a doctor’s appointment for each one.
Do you know of anything equivalent for stimulants? They don’t seem to have that category, and it’s more tightly regulated, so I don’t expect a positive response here, but I ask jic. I’m worried that a future dr might not renew my 3-month prescription for whatever reason, and then I’m in shambles.

Yeah, I don’t think it’s possible for controlled substances due to the tighter regulation.
