The fear porn and bogeymen over oxy and vicodin is pretty much bullshit now. This isn't even nanny state it's always misleading.

Stop the uses of the terms 'opioids' and 'opiates.'

The problems are illegal street drugs. What's the fucking problem with saying it? The city of SF hands out 400,000 free needles…per month.

Most anywhere, heroin is as easy to get on the streets now as weed.

Even then, it's primarily Fentanyl followed by heroin and meth.

Why not specifically say fucking Fentanyl?

Screwed because those dealing with pain get treated by overly cautious doctors as if they are potential crackheads by asking to extend a 5/375 script for an extra month.

Not news. That China is the main supplier of U.S. Fentanyl via Mexico has been out there for four years now.

This is what sparked the Fentanyl posts.

Please quit using the terms.

It's Fentanyl, Heroin and Meth.

Quit causing problems for people with actual pain that go to their doctors for relief.

Start calling out the drugs by name instead of by class.

fyi if anons don't plan to overdose, commit suicide or develop diabetes, Americans have the longest life expectancies in the world.
