Josh , R. U. Screwed ?

Dávid Lizák

100% Sooch is faking that face to get Josh in trouble

Gracie Bou

i’m killing josh myself move over casey

sloggedoff

I wish it was this easy man 😭😭😭 I’m just glad sooch is gonna be able to hopefully find some relief with his prescription!!!

Allie D

Imho, everybody can be upset about a bunch of things and it’s okay, even if it’s about a joke. Like. It’s ok to be upset about Josh making a joke that one wouldn’t like being done to oneselves lol. For example. I’d definitely be the one doing that joke myself 😭🥲 as a NA I found it super funny and I’m definitely doing the same joke in the future (probably about myself tho). At the same time, I was upset on Sooch’s part because he’s doing the puppy face specifically to generate empathy. LOOK AT HIM BEING SO SAD 🥺🥺🥺 So it works on me. So I both laughed and was upset which I agree is weird but humans are weird and it ok lol. (I’m not naive tho I feel like Sooch isn’t really hurt he’s just fucking with Josh) I didn’t see a message taking it to a value level (like saying "you guys are bad because you think it’s funny", not even "Josh is bad", people were mostly saying "wtf Josh") sooo I guess everybody’s nice and just having different feels about it and it’s alright.

Iona

Some people think that the joke fell off, and some people don’t. I guess it just depends on how you take having to get medication and what exactly this medication does for a person. because as someone who was on it from literal middle school all the way into college this shit had me dry and depressed so I think the joke was just a little bit tackles funny joke, just the wrong time

Alexandria Hart

I really don’t think Sooch is offended guys, or not in the way a lot of commenters are thinking. The man literally dabbled into psychological mind games on Josh with that breakfast sandwich, he’s not some defenseless little baby lol

oldmanbecca

Josh how dare you speak to my baby that way.

Olivia Handforth

omg prescription twinsies?!

Stella

I think that on any normal day Josh's jab wouldn't have been a big deal. They tease each other viciously but it's all in fun. This time I think the joke fell flat. Josh didn't mean it harm, but Sooch is raw. Acknowledging the need for and having the first appointment with a psychiatrist, his final grades still pending, his relationship with Howie. His feelings are hurt, but he won't hold it against Josh.

KronicKay

Man sometimes it is that easy tho. I told my first psychiatrist hey I think i might have adhd and bro was just like okay here’s meds lets see if it works! Granted he wasn’t a very good psychiatrist but when they worked apparently that counts as a diagnosis

Robbyn Dykeman

Lol Sooch is diabolical. I can see him milking the sympathy card to mess with Josh so Molly scolds him 😆

VelBelle

Oh give me a break guys. They tease each other like this all the time, if Sooch is actually upset then Josh will probably realize and apologize, it’s not that bad, we can all make mistakes.

Anto B

God I wish it was that easy to get diagnosed with ADHD 😭 (someone who has dropped out of college TWICE and has at this point mainly given up, even though I was a straight A honor roll student, who graudated high school with a 4.4 GPA and an Associate's Degree) me and Adderall would get this degree done so fast....

Meilei Phang

Even when you're used to a dynamic of teasing and jokingly being mean to each other, sometimes there's a jab at something you're actually insecure/upset about, and it genuinely hits even when the other person doesn't mean it any more seriously than usual. I do think Sooch is exaggerating his reaction to play it off as a joke, but I'm pretty sure this one kinda hurt for real

Magz

Why are we acting like it’s our first day reading this comic??😭 Did I miss something where it’s play dumb day? We all know Josh and Sooch’s friendship. We know Josh is joking and we know Sooch isn’t offended. Stop the foolishness

Ash

I hope Sooch throws his prescription at Josh’s head! It’s what I would do LOL

Jelli Fleeger

Josh, u absolutely uneducated degenerate LMAO. Tbh I’m interested to see how this will be handled since it’s something a lot of us medicated peops deal with on an almost daily basis. I’m happy that it’s been a lot more normalized but hearing things like “have you tried _____ instead?” or “is it a crutch?” will always make me wanna rip my hair out bahahahha OOF

SilentGAY

There are way too many comments on it already but i gotta give my two cents too unfortunately :u Some people who are close friends might not mind teasing like this. But for some people, saying something like that would be hurtful/insensitive no matter how close they are. Neither is wrong, it’s just a matter of different people feeling differently. Just judging from their previous interactions, I’m gonna guess Josh and Sooch are the former. Or, this could end up being an instance where Josh went too far and Sooch actually does feel a lil bad about it and Josh has to apologize. We don’t know because we don’t have the next pages yet. But. However the reader would feel in Sooch’s shoes is valid, but it’s also good to understand other people might not feel the same as you. I’m a person who’s more likely to get my feelings hurt because I don’t enjoy teasing no matter how close people are to me, so obv I would say I’m not a fan of what Josh said, but I also get that sooch might be different from me and not be bothered. Either way, if you are someone who wouldn’t be bothered by it, that’s fine. But there’s no need to say things like “you guys must not have friends if you don’t get that he’s joking” bc that’s just rude af and unnecessary.

Ivy

Honestly same. At first I thought they were cuddling (and honestly I hope that's what it is) but the position is weird, and why are y'all completely covered!? Get a room!! 😂

Ery

I'm not "policing" people's reactions. A lot of readers interpreted Josh's comment as one with malice and I was just trying to help them see (through Sooch and Josh's previous interactions) that the comment was not charged with the malicious intent they perceived and it's all just friendly banter. People are entitled to they're perception, but I know that if I interpreted something in a way that destroyed my perception of a character I'd be happy if someone (respectfully as I did) corrected that perception which is why I decided to post the comment in the first place. The ADHD comment wasn't meant to invalidate anyone, it was just to say that some people get offended for others when they themselves haven't experienced the situation. I wanted them to understand that, though it may seem offensive, it really is not and for them to be able to hear that from someone who HAS experienced it. And hey, just as they are entitled to their interpretation and you are entitled to not agree with me, I'm entitled to not agree with them and dislike the gross comments that are being made about such a lovely character and try to clarify. I did clarify in my first comment that I had no ill intentions and that the comment wasn't meant to bully anyone. Just wanted to reply in case it wasn't clear enough.

Ery

He is actually going to poison the food next time.

Poops

Sooch is playing up the sad panda so she'll smack Josh. 😂

J.K. Hogan

I agree with you about Josh, but thought-policing other people's reactions to the scene isn't cool either. Some people understandably get really triggered by the word 'crazy.' An writer/artist has to be prepared for the possibility that things they write may not always be interpreted the way they intended. I'm sure Bittie is aware of that and doesn't require you to lecture their readers. And not that anyone owes you their diagnoses to be annoyed u to weigh in, but for the record, I'm AuDHD. (and also a writer...)

J.K. Hogan

Also, y’all need to touch grass. If you and your friends don’t participate in some light bullying and tomfoolery, are yall even friends?

RAD

Me and sooch take the same meds!!! lol

RAD

Thank you! I wouldn't have been mad at the comment but the fact I walked in on my BFF and his gf hooking up on the couch that we all share, I would be mad at.

Audrey M

These boys take so many Ubers

cwaughffle

Droopy Sooch might be my new fave 🥺

Callousandcoldheart

with u there sooch

kaiD.lyn

Omg, I'm sorry but the comments on this one are not it. Most of you guys are being incredibly sensible and honestly ridiculous. I mean, first, have you ever had friends? Josh is OBVIOUSLY joking and means no offense and I think he has been incredibly supportive and kind that we all can realize that. Second, and I don't mean it to sound rude, but do you guys, that are mad about the comment, even have ADHD or ADD? As someone with ADHD I can tell you a comment like this from a TRUSTED FRIEND is NOT offensive and adding humor can actually be good in this situation where Sooch is feeling down. And lastly, we ALL know Sooch likes to play around with Josh. Have we forgotten him acting angry at Josh for having been Howies crush? Or just a few updates before when he was teasing about breakfast? This is clearly the relationship between them. I mean look at Sooch face before he makes the sad eyes. He only acts sad after Molly makes the comment defending him, Sooch is obviously doing it to mess with Josh, he knows it's going to get Josh in "trouble" with Molly. And honestly, love Sooch for it 😂 PS: This isn't meant to bully anyone. I'm just trying to clarify so people don't start hating on Josh, cause he is a beautiful character. Anyways, lots of love to you Bittie. Love seeing the playful relationship between these two. 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

Ery

Wow! Josh is an ass when he’s trying to get some, lol. Sooch, it’s ok. The meds will help your brain function the way it’s meant to.

DDonovan

Crazy pills 😭

Sarz

Ooh. Adderall! I was on that for years starting in high school- made school bearable. Switched to Vyvanse recently because the Adderall just wasn’t helping as much as it used to. Having the meds that let you function in the world is an amazing game changer!!!

GMRKitty

I feel like a lot of you guys don’t have friends lol. Teasing is so normal in many friendships. Sooch can antagonize Josh because he was Howie’s brief crush yet he didn’t getting any flack. Also, I’m pretty sure this story isn’t set in 2025 (correct me if I’m wrong), so the political climate surrounding mental health was a lot more ignorant. Thats why Josh being an ally was a little more remarkable and moving. Also Josh hasn’t belittled Sooch to my knowledge. Sooch has confided in Josh a lot about his relationship with Howie. And although it backfired, he tried to “help” his ADHD with coffee because he cares about him. Even when Josh saw Soch and Howie kissing before they told him, his first instinct was to come to Sooch’s defense because he thought Sooch was in danger. Also, y’all need to stop acting holier-than-thou as if you have never made an ignorant comment in passing that wasn’t deliberately offensive. Doing one questionable/bad thing doesn’t erase all the positive things you’ve done. Author’s will try their best to make characters more fleshed-out and human but y’all will still interpret them in a one-dimensional way. “Josh is bad because he made a joke that can be interpreted as ableist 😱.” “Blonde guy attacks Sooch because he’s gay himself 😱.”

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

so you can say he was… joshing around?☠️😭 (i’m sorry i had to)

Forest

he was just makin a joke. i think if sooch told him his comment bothered him he'd genuinely apologize

Kass

Oh no his face in the Last panel 😭😭

mixhelle

Josh the kinda guy to steal ur adderall

kristo

Oh yeah 😉 That's a given. All of the lovin

Ducky

Hi, I know this comment is a bit out of the blue and probably way too long but I just wanted to say thank you for creating R.U. Screwed! I started reading this webtoon nearly 3 years ago and it helped me a lot. I related so much with Sooch's (academic) struggles and for the first time in my 22 years of life I felt kinda seen yk. I then also reached out to a professional and got diagnosed and started to feel less like a complete screw up. Even though I still struggel with a lot of things, this diagnosis has helped me so much and this is to no small part thanks to your work. Thank you so much for making me feel seen and giving me the courage to reach out!

julie_975

wait… why is josh lowkey making me mad?😭 sooch is just baby and is trying to take care of himself

Forest

I love that bro somehow got his prescription the same day and it wasn’t at least a week later that his pharmacy actually had the adderall

Robbyn Dykeman

josh what the hell??? even if it was a joke, there’s so much stigma around taking psychiatric meds. i felt shame about it for a long time. poor casey

RachaelHere

The stigma around meds has definitely gotten better. Before starting mine, I know I thought meds meant I had failed. The real failure is not getting the medical help I needed. There's no prize for having life on the highest difficulty setting. Medication is a tool, not a moral judgment.

Sarah

Lmaoo sooch pulling out the puppy eyes

doobs

I remember my 10mg starter does of Adderall. Now I'm on 30mg extended release plus a small dose for late afternoon. Getting "crazy pills" improved my life so much.

Sarah

josh accidentally slamming his foot into a bear trap and then sticking that in his mouth

kaleidofiesta

some doctors will give a two month trial prescription to see how it works, mine did that for my endo meds

Jamie Elizabeth Eva

it can be weird! i take 40mg and im a social butterfly with endless task focus! but my stepdad took 10mg and turned into the bitchiest monster ever. it’s all trial and error, don’t be afraid! if it doesn’t work, you can try something else! there’s no detox period for most adhd meds :)

Jamie Elizabeth Eva

Omg twinsss I’m on vyvanse too 💅

Maddy ♡

josh, my dude… you’re on thin fucking ice. also, can i get a HELL YEAH for emotional regulation meds!! my life improved so much when i started Vyvanse and i love to see adhd girlies get the help that suits them!!

Jamie Elizabeth Eva

I tried Adderall but my body doesn't like stimulants. Strattera somewhat worked but it made me sick. Then I tried Bupropion and that didn't do Jack. So now I'm just managing without. Good luck Sooch, it's not an easy journey.

Littl3Gr3mlin

Josh is so me when I make a playful mean joke and accidentally hurt someone's feelings

erika

1) Josh, congrats on your couch game 👀 2) Josh what the FUCK

Katie

I wanted to try vyvance buuutt not sure how its gonna effect me

Christy 🌸

Josh dude wtf

underwraps

Josh went for the kill lmfao

Tenga

Lmao, I know. I was just trying to be funny. Clearly, I failed 😅

BiliousBecca

damn that’s aggressive bro

CactusMan

I don't think sooch is actually hurt, his favourite hobby is fucking with Josh 🤣 he's just messing around and knows that Josh is too, me and my friends do the same

G

I mean one it's a starter dose, he can't just go from zero to 100, two every medication is slightly different, so it differs in dosage even if ADHD meds are very similar

G

Nah, sooch is a bullshitter look at them big ol eyes he's just trying to get sympathy

NumberOneJew

Same same, it’s always a crap shoot so I ask for a renewal pretty quick hoping I get some whenever it does come in

Morgen Schuler

That’s the fancy name brand shiz, get it Sooch! And welcome to the club. That adorable sad face. I bet Molly will come hug him, lambaste Josh and Sooch will stick out his tongue at Josh when she’s turned around 😉. Also, I see a bra strap, heavy “cuddling” indeed but they weren’t freaked out by him walking in so I don’t think it was sexy times yet.

Morgen Schuler

Wait, Tori, really? Molly NOT the type to be handsy and not give a fuck who notices? We're talking about the Molly that faceplanted drunk on the floor.

Umbrathor

Pretty sure Josh is just joking around... he very much strikes me as the kind of person to use humor to try to ease tension/cheer up the mood. Once he notices that his joke actually upset Sooch, guarantee he'll apologize and be supportive.

BiliousBecca

And your fanbase!

Umbrathor

And then soft, soothing words and kisses, caresses, ruffling his hair, rocking him in those big arms and then they'd better take it to the bedroom.

Umbrathor

Me: sees that Sooch is on 10mg of Adderall Me: laughs in 70mg of Vyvanse We are similar, but not the same, Sooch. 🤣🤣

BiliousBecca

I hope he is merely doing it out of a reflex of the Sooch-Josh-Headbutt-War

Umbrathor

Mostly agreeing with Nee, adding that Molly is likely to be just as handsy under that blanket.

Umbrathor

oh josh, these drugs will not stop the sooch and josh war

MoTheGhost

Congrats Josh for getting it

Diego P

It says to take 2 daily so it’s a 30 day supply. 💜

Caitlin

The fuck is wrong with you, Josh??? Molly, he doesn’t deserve you! And to think Sooch is the one who told Molly you were a nice guy. I’m disappointed, Josh. You disappoint me. You better win these two back asap.

Iona

👏👏👏

LV

Saaaame but with depression. I survived 20 years with it untreated but it almost won a few years ago and it was like either I get on meds right NEOW or I scribble my will on a cardboard box and give in because lord I am tiredt. And I hate HATE hate that I waited so long. Truly such a waste.

Nee

MF HOW DID HE GET A 60 DAY SUPPLY??? Im lucky if i can get 30!😭

ChessMixxd

I’m gonna say they’re snuggling while watching Ted Lasso (and Josh being a little handsy under the blanket which is only fair ) 😌🫱🏽🍑

Nee

Dexmethylphenidate for the win 🤩 i’ve been on focalin since i was 9

Ion

my first thought lmdaoao

abbracadabra

Are they fucking in the living room? 😭

Lau

Yea and it's going to be Molly fighting him in defense of Sooch

Lynn Freeman

It's ok Sooch, if it makes you feel better I'm on the same medication but XR & at 4x the dosage - & even THAT seems to have decided to stop working for me anymore as of the past month or so now 😭☠️ (I literally just made an appointment yesterday for next week to discuss possible med change options, so wish me luck y'all 😅🙏)

Jenna Murdock

Them some fighting words joshie boy

Jessica Shontz

Poor Sooch 🥲 I definitely get it. It took me years to finally accept that I might have anxiety (having any mental health issue that required medication was so heavily stigmatized when I was growing up) to the point where when I talked to my doctor about it she was like “oh yeah no, you definitely do, no question on that” 😅 when I first filled the prescription it felt like i…failed to an extent, like there were some basic qualifiers to being a normal human being and I couldn’t even get that right. Thankfully I got over that awful quick when I started taking the medicine and found out how not panicking 24/7 felt 😅 but either way, it’s such an intense mix of emotions and a huge struggle to go through. I’m glad sooch is taking the first step in that ❤️

Gracie T.

what’s he being mean for

sevink

THANK YOU

Magz

Josh is gonna feel bad when he realizes Sooch is actually not clowning for once

Ashley

Sooch and I are on the same prescription and dosage 😂

Kyra Kia

This whole thread is so bizarre to me - like, it’s a controlled substance here too but when my doctor prescribed me Concerta she sent the prescription to my pharmacy of choice and I picked it up the next day. I’ve never had an issue. The only real limit on it is that I can’t renew it ahead of time like other medications. Even in the past when there was a shortage starting of another medication I was on for my depression, the pharmacy warned me about it and gave me a 3-month refill instead of just a single month, to make sure I’d be covered for a good while. I didn’t even have to ask, they just did it. I definitely appreciate the Canadian system even more though now. I wish it wasn’t such a struggle to get the support you need elsewhere!

Trees

The audacity look at his sad eyes 😭😭😭 do we need to square up with Josh bro 😤

Jade

I'm just happy Howie wasn't there to hear Josh's comment. Obviously it was said as a teasing joke, but I totally see Howie going warrior mode to defend Sooch's honor.

Dawn

Josssshhhhh not the time bro. Poor bb Sooch. He needs a super Howie hug ! Just those big bear arms wrapping around him making him feel safe. Howieeee come to the rescue!

Ducky

vro cant catch a break 💔💔💔

Gemini

Ha haaeh (sticks out tongue) (it's kinda funny the vine guys brother is also named Josh, I think I remember that right)

Barbs

💯

Erika

Oh noooooo he looks like a kicked puppy 😭😭😭

Barbs

Nice move Josh you just lost major points with your girlfriend. 😒

Scott Argo

Bro he’s been inside the house for two seconds 💀

Mono

adderall is the most commonly prescribed drug for ADHD, and it is very commonly re-sold illegally. it is a controlled substance because it is an amphetamine, so the DEA is a lot stricter with managing its production. the problem, of course, lies between pharmaceutical company fuckery and DEA hyper-vigilance slowing down distribution. it’s one of those American problems that could probably be solved if every other politician weren’t bought and payed for by the pharmaceutical industry 🙄.

ajayburd

Three episodes of Sooch sitting in his room calling every CVS in the area. 🤣

Amanda

JOSHUA MARIE. I DID NOT RAISE YOU TO ACT LIKE THIS TO YOUR FRIENDS.

ell

Absolutely. There have been 6 month stretches at a time where my doctor had to call multiple pharmacies and could only scrounge up enough pills for 10 days. It’s not as bad now (in my part of the country at least) but every couple of months my regular pharmacy can’t fill it and we have to go through the process again. It doesn’t help that you need a new script every month, no refills. 🙄

Amanda

You can joke about it once he get use to the idea of talking the pills, Josh, come on. 😭🤣

Arii

🤣

ell

I'm speeding the process up in the comic to move plot along and also because that would be a lot of boring pages 😔

Kimmikala

his facial expressions kill me 😭

yasmine

JOSH HES JUST A BABY

Mariangela

Yep. There has been a shortage for almost a year, because the DEA is stupid and doesn't have any actual medical professionals. They saw the rise in prescriptions (because it was helping people function in their daily life) and thought 'MUST BE FRAUD!'

Erika

I am this close 👌🏼 to being the one that kills Josh

Jane Boggs

MY SHAYLAA 😭 I wanna hug him

Any

His face 😭 he's not a bullshitter leave the poor boy alone..! 😆

Amber

Sooch has the best faces😂

ChessMixxd

Is it really that difficult? In my country when we get a prescription most pharmacies have stock 😅 I was on sertraline and topamax, my only trouble was finding affordable topamax because some pharmacies only had very pricey brands

Ximinnie

yay adderall buddies

mccauliflower

Joshua, RUDE. Now is not the time. Sooch has that “first psychiatric prescription” thousand yard stare. So proud of our boy. 👏🏻👏🏻

Amanda

Haha. Common Josh. You know Sooch is going to pull on Molly’s heart strings. You’ll never win this one. Don’t start a battle you can’t win 😆

Amelia Rector

I’ve been taking 2 different doses every day for like 7 years and still have a hard time finding it pretty regularly. 😒 Though to be fair I’ve never had an issue filling the 10mg IR Sooch has, only the higher dose ER.

Amanda

He's got cool guy syndrome! Now he's gotta take... Adderall😎 (if you get this I love you)

Magz

SOOCH'S SAD TINY FACE IN THE LAST PANEL 😭😭😭

Anna-Marie Janzen

He’s gonna make him cry noooo

kylee trusty

Josh. Dude.

SeaSci

I wonder if he's going to go through all the side affects too! My bf dealt with that a couple years ago.

Talu

Hahaahahaha. Josh is so petty. 😂

MelaConfi

You can tell Josh is supportive

Caroline Mahoney

awwwww

charlie

Okay but I’m so happy to see them snuggling on the couch.

Rachael Pavlik

Josh and Molly snuggles!!! ❤️ But Josh, dude, don't poke the sensitive spots

Bekahbookwyrm

As someone who works at a family medicine clinic, HOW DID HE GET ADDERRAL THAT EASILY??? Here in the States, I've had patients going to 5 different pharmacies to fill their Rx. 😆

Erika

Aww, too soon, Josh - he’s conflicted about the meds already and doesn’t need your jokes 😤😤

Luna Lena

sooch's face at the end ): oh baby

Tayler

Lol

Mooo777 8

Adderall? Oh, shit, Sooch is about to see the code! Also, ON THE COUCH? 🤣

Brendon Bradley

Cuddling I’m pretty sure. Molly doesn’t seem like the type to do that.

Tori

sooches face in the last panel 🥺🥺 poor babbyyyyy. I promise Adderall helps

Ashley Nicole

WHY WOULD HE SAY THAT HAHAHAHA

Tayler

RUDE also, hands where we can see them, kids!! 🧐

.k

It looks like cuddling to me

Jordan Bressman

Looks like cuddling lol

Ash

I'm so dirty minded I thought he was getting condoms

theo

Payback for all the PDA he had to put up with. 😂

Haishaye

Are they doing it or just cuddling on the couch in the living room?
