    We lose ~41 people per day to Rx opioid overdose. On 4/21 #Prince was 1 of them. He was the best known but 40 other lives were lost that day

        @groove_with_it Addiction is common with the ADHD-Bipolar species and a failure to acknowledge it is harmful.

        Accidental overdose is rare and Mentally ill Bipolars using it for a high is common.
