I’m tired of hearing about the problems of heroin addicts.
I’ve known users. When someone is using, they have, literally, lost their humanity. There is literally nothing they won’t do for their next hit.
My wife is a “Big sister” to a 13 year old girl in our town. The girl’s mother died of a heroine overdose last week.
There are a lot of dry counties around here. Ours is one of them. I recently learned that not only are drunk driving deaths and injuries per capita higher in dry counties, but so is illegal drug use. It’s the old conundrum: You push here, and it pops out there.
Do they PacAhypoDerm?
All I know is I wouldn’t recommend Ketamine.
Unless it’s used during surgery.
y legalize all narcotics and let the idiots kill themselves.
Somewhere, somehow natural selection must kick in.

side note ...guess which countries grow the poppy plant?
So, how does this stuff compare to PCP (horse tranquiziers)?
I was on Fentynal for 6 yrs for major back and nerve issues. I am perplexed that people are getting high from this stuff.
I have never felt any sort of euphoria from Fentynal. But I didn’t screw around with it either. The potential of overdose was beaten into me by my Dr. My quality of life was 10 fold than what it is now, on OxyContin..
I just don’t understand the attraction to it. What can they possibly get out of it?
That will pretty fix itself, unfortunately. A friend lost her daughter to this stuff
The addicts can be found binging on bags of peanuts.
If you want to see this stuff disappear, use it to administer the death penalty (has it’s own tranquilizer mixed right in).
Big Pharma is currently denying states lethal injections. Tell them it is for ‘assisted suicide’ and they’ll be cool with it.
Well, people tend to be larger nowadays...
My son had a bright future. Making over $50,000 a year when he was in his mid 20’s being a supervisor at a major manufacturing company. New car, money in his pocket. vacations. Adorable daughter born in 2010. Then a car accident left him with a shattered shoulder and in terrible pain. I don’t know when he became an addict. I’m assuming after the doctors pumped him up with narcotics and then, as they do, abruptly cut him off. Eventually he lost his job. Resorted to donating plasma and retail theft to support his habit. His insecure wife decided to join him, rather than put her child first. In early 2015 I reported them to CPS and my granddaughter was taken away. I have not spoken to him since. I love my son but I cannot trust him. He is a shell of his former self. I expect a knock on the door or a phone call telling me he is dead or in jail.
Professionals will tell you, this epidemic is like no other. The last 5 years have seen a dramatic increase in deaths and overdoses. Heroin is cheap and plentiful. Yet, there are no public service announcements or school programs warning of the dangers or addictive nature of this drug. As I stated previously, this is being marketed to mostly white males. Many overdoses are kids from upper middle class backgrounds. Is our government profiting from it? Why else would it be ignored?
