      You are exactly right!!! Our government should be putting just as much money and probably even more into this epidemic than they gave towards C0V1D!!! We've lost far more people and we're continuing to lose to this fentanyl poisoning than we ever did to C0V1D. Our government NEEDS to step TF UP!!!

      You are exactly right 👍 Our government dumped more funding into C0V1D than they have into fentanyl poisoning. More people have died and continue to die from fentanyl poisoning than C0V1D ever did!!! It too is an epidemic and it NEEDS a whole lot more funding from the government than it's receiving. It's not just going away on it's own, that's for certain.

    For those that get consumed by this and similar channels: your views can get skewed. We know there is pain and suffering in the world, it’s now easier to share this unfortunate reality thanks to media, but your life and your reality is tied directly to your attention. What you focus your attention on will become your reality. Don’t get sucked into dark media. Be balanced. Turn off news media so that you can live again. Bless you all.

      We all attract what we dwell on. We have a series of recovery stories on our channel that have much happier endings. There’s also a series of Human Trafficking stories that have happy endings. .

    This is what many people don't realize about addiction to substances like opioids, benzos, and amphetamines. Once you take these substances for a while, your brain stops producing the "feel good" chemicals naturally, because the drug is producing them. So if you stop taking the drug, you get sick (withdrawals). Withdrawals are different for each type of drug, but they are horrible...you cannot function normally when you are in withdrawal. Therefore, you continue taking the drug to avoid being sick and so you can function. This is how the cycle of addiction continues. Nobody WANTS to be an addict.

    This is very interesting. Thanks for the insight. Addiction is a puzzling brain mindstorm. The self hatred is real and powerful. The inner voice just doesn’t work well and relapsing occurs. The self hatred grows stronger . 😢

    Its only uniquely human because we have the means, you can easily do an experiment and get the same results with mice or rats. They will get to the point where when given the choice they pick the drug over food.

    Because drugs feeeeeel soooooooo Gooooooood. BETTER THAN SEX and CHOCOLATE CAKE; my dear friend was addicted to Oxycodone; she's so stubborn and hard-headed she beat her addictions herself! She was in a car accident and hit her head against the windshield, and they told me she might not make it. I said, she'll be fine, she has a hard head, and she was fine. Drugs feeeel sooooo GOOOOOD then you feel like Crap if you don't have them. And the brain never forgets the Euphoria it experienced.

      ​@@milanimorales2645its not the drug dealer's faults, its the G O V...Everyone wants to act like ots individuals, but its not. Now, the Fentanyl, for the life of me, I can't understand how a "dealer" would want to murder their customers....I do understand ppl hooked on opiates need stronger substances, so maybe dealer's are catering to them and others get caught in crossfire?? BUT, i know Money Rules many, same as the G O V who has made us Allllll need more

    The drug pusher will say to you "You need a vacation from sobriety, just a small hit." People, Places, Things, and Words will remind your brain how GRRREEAAAATT and FUUUUNNNNN it is to get high.
