Thanks for not using the term addict. Compassionate and dignified care for people with SUD certainly will help recovery. Thanks for the efforts.
“Expecting a person w/a substance use disorder to stop misusing opioids is like telling you or I not to breathe — you can try, but eventually your body takes over & will force you to take a breath.” #RegionalHealthSummit2018 #supportrecovery #enablerecovery

Agreed, doctors need to ween patients off of Opioids properly. Not just take them away abruptly. Doing so will just compound the problem.

I didn't have a problem stopping Vicodin after a microdisectomy L5-S1, but did have a heck of a time getting past not knowing why unable to sleep and biases that ensued from how charming no sleep for weeks can be.

All the more reason to expand *free* access to medication assisted treatment (MAT), like methadone maintenance and Suboxone to help people with

I concur on this one because I could never stick to the schedule. Plus dad was my

Humans have natural addiction mechanisms that keep us fed and help us to procreate and trigger our needs to help our fellow humans so the species survives. When foreign substances are introduced to our natural addiction systems we lose control of those systems. 1 of 2
