    I would love to hear suggestions on how to improve this video to make it more helpful and informative. If you have any comments on anything you have seen in this video, or have a personal story about opioid addiction you would like to share, then please let us know about it here in the comments. Your story of addiction could be the one that helps someone else to help end theirs.

    Perhaps you can examine how this is affecting chronic pain patients. The majority of overdoses are from Street users. Wbile chronic pain patients only make up 15% of O.D.'s ! Or so I've heard. There's So Much Hype!! You can't trust them. I.m a chronic pain patient and as my back worsens the restrictions keep getting worse. Succeed in taking our medications away and they will have a new epidemic....suicide.

    When I hear such high inflated numbers of deaths, the question comes to mind is what else besides the opioid caused the death commonly known as the cocktail AKA other abused substances besides just the opioid??

    Thank you for the feedback. I think I have the conversational tone down now, i just need to sound a bit more natural in the delivery. Sorry it took so long to reply, I have been busy on the next episode. I actually have 2 more videos coming before the next episode in this series on prisons. While working on the prison video I spent a good portion talking about Methadone and Suboxone, so I decided to split those out into their own videos. I give an overview of what they are, how they work ,and answer the most common questions about them. The Methadone video should be up in a few days, and the Suboxone one should be up in a week or so. What do you think is the most important and pressing issue for me to cover after the prison system episode?
