The massive drug addiction must be an illusion.
Ever been to an emergency room at night?
I’m sure it’s not, but most people want the drugs for the slightest discomfort and have no clue what Real Pain is. in my case well I found out because if the drugs wore off or if I didn’t take them soon enough I Literally would start to shake, sweat go into Shock and hit the ground wherever I was. Withdrawls only take a week and Doctors used to be able to put you in the Hospital to get it done, which is the right thing to do. 1978 was a long time ago though
