      The torrent of people who have died in the opioid crisis has transfixed and horrified the U.S. But most drug users do not die. Many, like Patrick Griffin, are trapped in an unending cycle of addiction. http://nyti.ms/2BkgMAz pic.twitter.com/vwoPnV8sMl

      The opioid scourge has overwhelmed police and fire departments, hospitals, courts and jails. But most of all, it has upended families.http://nyti.ms/2BkgMAz

      The Griffin family allowed The New York Times to follow them for much of the past year because they said they want people to understand the realities of drug addiction. “We are your neighbors.”http://nyti.ms/2BkgMAz

          In the 20 years that Patrick has been using drugs, he has lost track of how many times he has overdosed. He guesses 30. All the Griffins speak of nonstop stress.pic.twitter.com/zh3qB3uJyC

          For drug users and their loved ones, the worry never ends. The threat of relapse is constant. "He suffers more than anybody," his mother Sandy said.http://nyti.ms/2BkgMAz

          It's a shame... I have been affected with family members addicted. You can't help them. Let them go. tough, but just let them go. They can only help themselves. The addiction must be worse than the cure, let them hit rock bottom... rock bottom has to be painful...

          If this was a black family “Patrick” would’ve already been locked up in prison. Heroin use is illegal is it not?

          A medical directed cannabis therapy program that uses dosed extracts to reduce the toxic levels of opiates and helps ease withdrawal must be developed to save lives. Look to the states with adult use cannabis laws and our overdoses are down and people are using cannabis to heal.pic.twitter.com/OfKdZ4DQlz
