He's still alive?* I hope so, and I hope he was able to kick the habit. When it first came out, t was pushed on doctors heavy. Several prominent articles -- written by respected doctors -- touted the drug highly for those suffering long term pain. How they missed the part that it's a focking opiate, and opiates are the most addictive types of drugs made, and have been since people like Wyatt Earp's wife in Tombstone we're junked out on it is beyond me. *I don't ask that flippantly. Most who get on heroin don't live a great deal longer.
Again, this is oversimplistic fantasy. The idea that opiate addiction can just be blamed on irresponsible doctors or patients seeking out a buzz. Has nobody seen Dr. House? Did nobody watch Unguarded? Okay, maybe those are bad examples, but plenty of people try to 'do it properly' and end up just as much of an opiate junkie as the next guy. People tend to build up a tolerance to opiates -- seemingly moreso than other drugs -- aggressively and as a matter of course. And opiates tend to be more addictive than other drugs. This is leads to problems.
There are plenty of docs out there who are more than willing to help feed your addiction if they can make a buck. More than willing.
Absolutely. I pulled a muscle in my back and had to miss work, went to the doc so I could get it excused, this guy writes me a scrip for an inflammatory and a pain meds. I had never heard of them so I looked them up, what I found was people saying that they got high even through the pain. All I did was tell what happened and where it hurt, he couldn't break the pad out quick enough. I didn't even bother breaking them open. You can go in to a walk-in clinic right now and put on a little show and have pain meds that will have you floating within the hour.
You think this is about doctors making a buck? Huh? Please pretty please explain how that rationale makes sense.
What do you mean by "effect" and how is it relevant to a spiraling addiction? Because if you wanted to show us all world class focking retardation, then tell us all about how you can avoid opiate addiction by merely ingesting rather than insufflating it. And I can't wait.
Trust me I understand the system. There's doctors that only accept cash and deal with pain contracts. They're making a killing
