    Recovery community friends: This isn’t about you. It’s about me. This isn’t about your addiction. It’s about weaning yourself from prescription drugs if that’s your choice. Have a nice dayhttps://www.latimes.com/business/story/2019-09-05/prescription-drug-dependence …

        “This isn’t about you” says the man who takes anti-depressants, calls himself a drug addict, and then can’t figure out why multiple groups of people are mad at him.

        Doubling down on this harmful column with zero introspection given some of the very thoughtful responses is an interesting choice.

        Are you also on medicine for your diabetes? Are you addicted to that as well, in that you need it to function? When will you wrote the column where you discuss weaning yourself off of that?

        I get it but you still are unwittingly advocating against potential live-saving drugs. Put the article in a personal blog, not a national newspaper. It is damaging and irresponsible. @latimes
