yes I would, heroin isn't dangerous on its own, just in overdose or when contaminated, and I wouldn't want my kid to suffer needlessly

Overdoses happen when you relapse and try to dose where you left off, so if you just keep using you're good.

my crackhead neighbor back in northwest arkansas had four doctors for her "MS" (neat facts chronic meth abuse can give you MS-like symptoms and at that point your life is over and ruined so doctors kind of roll with it). one in AR, one in MO, one in KS and one in OK. you just doctor-shop small town doctors until you find one that's broke enough to take your money.

and sure as poo poo every month they were 'on a road trip' for the first 3 days of the month and then they'd come home and there would be a 24 hour endless stream of cars visiting their house for the next eight days

A lady I worked with years ago was going to a pill mill doctor. She was pretty cool, she was always in a good mood and she could sleep sitting up. At her funeral we all learned that her ponytail was a clip-on.

Yeah, I definitely would if it were prescribed. Research overwhelmingly shows people who take opiates for a brief period of time while experiencing acute pain don't develop an addiction. It also shows that morphine and heroin have near identical effects on people, and that even the people being given it can't tell the difference.

In my painful surgery experience, you can hardly tell you are on oxy. It's obvious because the pain levels get dialed back a bit and you care less than normal, but there's no euphoria. This ad is dumb as heck, especially when it comes to wisdom tooth removal where the dentist gives you like 2 pills. It's not like they're shipping you out of there with a 30 day supply.

Huh.. Im not the only one that oxy doesn't do poo poo for.

But you have a completely different set of docs. I had a doc send me home with a month's worth of Vicodin for a sinus infection. And thats not the dumbest reason I have been given opioid meds.

Did have a doc give me something once that worked. And by worked I mean I sat in a chair and drooled on myself for several hours, would get lucid enough to take the next dose. Had a month worth of that poo poo too. Honestly I think it was his way of apologizing for killing me with a morphine dose in the ER the day before.

So its more where you are at and how irresponsible the doctors are.

There's a good book on this subject called "Dreamland: The True Tale of America's Opiate Epidemic" if you're interested in the history of opiate prescription and heroin addiction in America.

Extremely plausible.

I think if it was a white child id see it and assume it was challenging preconceptions and endorsing heroin.

"Getting teased is part of growing up. It's no big deal. Just tell yourself, 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but a .44 Magnum will tear that bully a new asshole!'"
The government needs to get the gently caress out of people's medicine cabinets. I've seen my old man who suffers from chronic back pain go through opiate withdrawals twice because docs are scared to up his dosage for breakthrough pain and he ends up short for a few days at the end of the month. I hope I'll never have to treat chronic pain with opiates because I'm terrified of being at the mercy of a doctor more worried about losing their license than treating their patients. The system is hosed up.

"hmm this guy with visible tattoos knows what oxycontin is and asked for something more than ibuprofen for the pain, im going to assume he is an abuser and i will not give him the chance of relief because the chance that he is merely informed because hes been around or dealt with opiate addiction before and is thus much more likely to use them responsibly is literally zero. suffer you scumshit."

this guys job as a doctor is to treat me, not to act as the moral police, so none of this should even matter if there is an obvious ailment for which opiates are prescribed in any other case.
