I'm going to give a friend a pill to calm her down
I don't understand, is this some sort of medication?
No, it's just a nice pill
You should not be giving friends pills without a prescription. It could really hurt them.
I have done it before
If they've not gotten a prescription and you aren't even willing to talk about what it is, then it is probably best to keep it away from someone that you care about. You could potentially hurt your friend, even if it hasn't yet. Why would you want to do that?
