Ummm. I have a wife, daughter, mother and sister. You are an idiot for being a women’s warrior in singling just that our. I have seen way more males drugged into zombie-land. I know what I speak of. It wasn’t compared to ADHD but drs freely (not that I disagree) symptom treatment I am not a Neanderthal living in a cave. You Idiot female dog. I know what they are willing to prescribe. My point doctors are either free spirits or drug pushers.
If women menstruation was all you got from my comment then you belong on DU. Just absolutely pathetic.
My comment was on Fent. How people get led to it. Have you had advanced cancer + treatment causing long term opiate treatments. NO? So take my comment and disregard it because I mentioned the Cotten pony. Idiot. Please READ PLEASE LEARN.
Yikes. Simmah down. If you object to what I said, use better and more well-thought-out examples.
People DO get led to drugs by doctors. If the pain isn’t continuous and life-long, they have options: (1) use them responsibly, (2) don’t use them at all, or (3) abuse and get hooked on them. “Just say no” actually works.
I can’t relate to or criticize people who must be on extreme pain meds for continuous and life-long excruciating pain. Who knows what they’re driven to? Do they OD/die while using drugs as prescribed? That’s on the doctor, and a horrible tragedy. Is their drug used considered abuse or healthcare?
When drug use is recreational, then I have no sympathy. Better that those people leave this earth.
BTW, I HAVE had advanced cancer and drugs, resulting in a mastectomy and opioids for extreme pain. I chose to not take pain meds. That was 2014 and I just found the pills in my med cabinet and threw them away. But I had the “luxury” of knowing it wouldn’t last forever and decided to tough it out.
