        Mine got me so addicted I couldn't function properly. When I went to beg him to help me find something else, he turned away and threw up his hands saying "We didn't even used to *give* opioids to people with your condition..." as he walked out of the room. I never saw him again.

        And I never took another opioid from that moment. Just stopped. I was lucky that way. Now I hurt, but on the outside.

        There's a definite shortage, thanks to the DEA and Jeff Sessions. There are very few docs in Hawaii unless you've been a patient for a long time. There are a lot of people who can't self regulate their opiates. It hurts those of us who legitimately rely on them.

        Big pharma caused the crisis made billions of it. They should be paying for clean maintenance/detox centers. Medicaid for mental health. In the meantime people with real chronic painful diseases are paying the price. Their suicide rates are rising aka deaths of despair.

        There are so many layers to this tragic epidemic. It’s so good to hear about this doctor taking a stand and not being a link in the chain that enables the epidemic to continue. #makeadifference

        Probably because so many take or have taken money from pharmaceutical companies to prescribe them.

        I’ve been withdrawing from 12 years of doctor-prescribed morphine, over 400mgs daily. Now I am in excruciating pain but aren’t I “good”? Surely the moral judgments matter more than the medical.
