      This is the dumbest thing ever, lol peep didnt die from Xanax, he died from fucking fentanyl, a drug that's literally 50 times stronger than heroin. You can't die from Xanax or any other benzos overdose, the creators of these drugs literally made it impossible to od on em, shit people do your research idiots.

    What about the damage they did for the image of these medications, there are people out there who genuinely need these meds but due to the new federal laws have been taken off them leading to a spike in suicide among those who suffer chronic pain due to a disability, or elderly people battling cancer. They should always be a last resort medication but sadly there are people who are at their last resort they don't abuse them because they know what real pain an other issues are an are aware if they were to abuse them they'd no longer work and those are the people who got punished for this glorification movement they forever impacted those peoples lives causing them pain (death) while the shit they were doing weren't even prescription drugs just pressed pills of China bought drugs.

Ya the image they gave the medicine and now demonizing it the way they are is adding double damage to what they have already done. If there going to go preaching then add in there that "some people neeed these meds to function" and it not only hurts people who where abusing the drug but your now hurting people who don't abuse it and use it as prescribed by creating all this stigma around benzos.
