I had to have 4 surgeries on my eye in the past 6 months. They put a sedative in your bloodstream like fentanyl to knock you out immediately and to calm you down. I remember crying because of the situation (never had surgery and it's my eye) and the RN made the decision to give me an extra dose to calm me down. It was such a good feeling. Last tear dropped down my face and I faded away before another nurse came to wake me. I used to be really harsh on drug addicts but I can see now how people get hooked. How easy it might be for someone with lower defenses to go and try to recreate that sensation.

Fentanyl has been used in the OR's for many years, as it is a way to take people under while their breathing is supported by the anesthesia "department'. Using Fentanyl to get high, you may not get to wake up at all. Sort of how MJ went out, with his Diprivan...Drip...drip....no one to make these lungs move for these poor people.....His MD was next door, on the phone while Michael was going to sleep, to never wake up. The dude got paid for that job. Unbelievable he only got 3 years in jail for manslaughter.

You could call the would be supplers, compertition. But the war is not against compertition but against the free flow and free uncontrolled supply or flooding of a country's own regulated supplys. If a group with-in a country had a ware house the size of a mountain brimming to the cealing with nacotic drugs legally with in their own country. Then that would likely be no problem if bussiness was conducted legitamately. The war against drugs is not against those but is against offenders trying to by-pass federal importation control laws. IE illegal smugglers totally unprepraed to contribute to a health care system or doctors bills ETC when the suffering start to go really wrong. In the case of the illegal smuggle (competition) their supply is a form of victimisation rather than proper medical help. Their interests are purly money and not health. So sorry. But yes there has been a 'war against illegal drugs'. You could benefit from reading some of the storys of those serving long prison sentences.

I won’t sugar coat this or make it reader friendly. My brother died yesterday from a possible drug overdose on my grandmothers couch. He died with his cousin sitting beside him, uncle in another room, and grandmother another room down. Before they realized it, he was gone! A few seconds -minutes it went from simple Tuesday to a crime scene. Once those drugs enter your body, without proper medical intervention- YOU ARE DEAD! Someone who didn’t know him, love him, or care about him gave him drugs that would kill him ALL for a quick buck. I am currently sitting outside still unable to process. I don’t think people understand the severity of this situation. Drugs do not discriminate. Death does not discriminate. If there is anyone out there struggling with addiction get help. Anyone in recovery and seeing the signs that you may possibly relapse, get help! If you think your loved ones won’t understand try them or reach out and get help. NO ONE can understand, listen, or work with you if you don’t REACH OUT and get help. You are not alone. You are worth it. He definitely was! RIP JT 05/ 21/24 🕊️

So therefore heroin or opiates is a prescription only drug which can only be prescribe by qualified and licenced dorctors? So how is it that they as you stated are behind an epidemic of illegal uncontrolled non qualified use by those poor supposed addicts. The doctors are only permitted to prescribe for medical reasons and so any opioid prescriptions are for servea medical needs. The US pharmaceutical companies are not pushing street drugs or drugs for illegal purposes. Their licence to supply is dependant upon their supplys being to only prescription cases when the drug is prescription only. Those junkies you see in the video cooking up their junk on tin foil is some derilict environment are users of the underground black market buying from unlicenced non qualified criminals. Is that not how it is really? See that guy at 10:47 using strrt methods!

I was using heroin for 18 years and been clean for 2+ years now, I watched the Opioid pandemic slowly turn from Heroin into fentanyl, what happened was the dealers start cutting the heroin with it and in no time at all the users need the fentanyl more than the heroin. They start to look for the fentanyl because heroin isn’t strong enough and doesn’t stop enough of the withdrawal from the fentanyl. Most of the users that switch from heroin to fentanyl don’t do it because they like fentanyl more they do it because they will be dope sick if they don’t. Most heroin users will tell you they want pure heroin but you can barely even find it in America anymore and if you do it’s weak heroin. So glad I am not a prisoner anymore.

I’m sober now, too, but I remember when fent first started popping up in the area my friends & I grabbed from in the mid 2010s. I hated it at first, didn’t enjoy the high at all…I’d end up passed out almost immediately, wake up & need more. No real euphoria. But the more I used it, exactly like you said, I ended up needing it just to feel “normal” & not be sick. By the end, if I didn’t turn into a comatose zombie after a line or two, I didn’t consider it worth doing. That was normal to me, after years of doing it. Insane.

I’m a paramedic in Glasgow and my colleagues and I often know there’s a bad batch doing the rounds certainly before politicians but fairly often even before the police. IVDUs will do the most they can to hide from the police but we often see them at their very lowest point. They phone us when their friends are dying in front of them. Most of them know we don’t want to judge them, just help however we can. We issue take home narcan kits which contain enough naloxone in a pre filled syringe to take most regular users right through into cold turkey. We have begun again in the last few months getting calls saying they have given the entire syringe and the person began to wake up but they tanked again. All we can do is attempt to give more (IV access is likely to be incredibly difficult for us on someone who has bashed the hell out of their veins for years) support their breathing to avoid hypoxic brain injury and bolt to the hospital. It’s heartbreaking when we meet people who tell us how they’ve lost friends, partners, parents and sometimes their children to dodgy batches mixed with who know what.

There is a lot of ignorance provided by puritans in the war on drugs who lie and say that beer is the same as moonshine. It is not. And you have to find out the appropriate dose and have a safe supply, you learn this by talking to people who have experience. There are so many drug poisonings that happen for people like you who stay away mostly and then one day try it without being taught the basics. Coffee is a dangerous drug also and will cause a heart attack fatality if you take the wrong dose of caffeine. Knowledge is what will keep you safe, not being pure.

Also, people need to stop talking about weed as though it's not a gateway drug, or is somehow healthy because it's "natural". It's BS.

@@simulki7108Interesting! Have you ever tried to check out what the underlying root cause of that void is? Like something psychological (e.g. childhood trauma that resulted in Borderline), or something neurological, or even something physical? If yes: is there no chance to tackle that? If not: why not? Have you tried using psychedelics in a less casual and hedonistic way, but in a more ehm, therapy-like way? I'm not that deep into it, but psychedelics are known to be an afterburner for neuroplasticity so that the brain can restructure itself relatively fast and thus radically change a lot of things. Addictions, habits, trauma, self sabotaging principles etc. Low to mid dosages of LSD for example help me to feel more "alive" and "awake" and getting things done. And it's analogues (original molecule with a tiny irrelevant change to make it temporarily legal) are easily and legally available on the clearnet, currently it's 1D-LSD until that is forbidden too.

I was given Fentanyl, when I had a big operation, a few years ago (UK/NHS) and it was amazing. I can see how this is happening. I have used Heroin as a functioning addict, on and off for the past 15 years, or so. This stuff was like the first time, again. Of course I was administered the drug in a controlled environment, so I was in no danger of going over, but from what I've heard, this stuff has such a high mortality rate, it's almost as if it's what it was created for.

Highly unlikely. While we might see an increase in overdose deaths the opioid crisis in the US has been largely driven by inappropriate prescription procedures by doctors.
