Have you been affected by the opioid crisis? If so, how?
You can never have too much knowledge. If you want to know more about the research in today's show, check out the show notes here https://www.louderwithcrowder.com/show-notes-opioid-crisis
Dopesick "the series" is loosely (and I am being kind) on the book. Purdue is a couple of paragraphs in the book. Macy gave up editorial control on her work. Having lost a loved one to a fentanyl od, I found the book a realistic depiction of my perspective of the crisis. There is this place where I live and you can walk and walk out with books and this is the best part, its free.
My husband would be more than happy to never have to take the small amount of drugs designated as opiods just so he can sleep at night. He still deals with a level of pain throughout the day even with that and can't do much of anything or it will aggravate the injuries. Also, surgery isn't an option for him. It's bad enough that his lively hood and ability to do simple things at home was taken from him at a young age, but bad media and deceitful government figures are going after his one way to get a nights sleep.
Go after the drug dealers, drug lords, and cartel!! Fund the drug stings and get the drugs off the street. He isn't an addict. People who have had previous substance problems are the issue and susceptible, or those looking for a lawsuit so they can get more $$. Why don't we have better or more drug programs, or mental health programs, cause I think that's a big issue too as they look at ways to escape life?
I'm sure there are bad doctors out there too, and I've met and heard of them with everything my husband went through, but there are good ones if you look hard enough. A lot of the bad ones though are bought and paid for by the big pharma, insurance companies, and yes even government funded locations. Maybe we should look into how much power those have. Yet there are those that need these drugs to be able to go about a semi normal life. Don't take that away from them. It's hard enough for them, and their loved ones who support them. Don't spew misinformation thats skews the real issues.
Go to a Pain management Doctor. The aren't afraid to give you meds, It's what they do. They do have other methods to try and help too. My surgeon sent to Pain Management for more hydrocodone after neck surgery. The do regulate amounts and do pee test to make sure you're not abusing.

I've seen opioids destroy the lives of more young people than i can count
I was prescribed percocet for at least 4 years for migraines used it quite often never got addicted.
I think opoids are a great option for pain relief.
Hooray for you! I totally agree with you on the so-called opiods crisis. I am a 72-year-old grandmother who's had sciatica, two hips replaced, back surgery to fused part of my back, broken left femur, And after six months had to have it rebroken and the whole thing done again. I cannot tell you how frustrating it was to try to get pain medication after these surgeries. They won't give it. It's cruel; that's what the medication was made for. A few years ago I almost died of a bleeding ulcer from taking too much ibuprofen because my doctor would not prescribe pain medication for me because he was afraid of the government. When I was younger and had surgery it was easier to get prescription pain medication From your physician, I took the prescription as long as I needed it and just quit Taking it. These people who say they got hooked because they broke their leg, etc, (often movie stars), are just bullshitting everybody. Thank you for bringing the whole subject up. BTW, can you imagine how humiliating it is to be in your late 60s and to ask your doctor legitimately for pain medication for your aching back and have her tell you that you have "drug seeking behavior". She could only prescribe it once, if I signed a contract and came in every week for a drug test. I pray to the good Lord that I won't need pain medication later as I age. Thanks for the good work.
The quote, "sick world with sick people." was that jingle all the way? The mailman.
The deaths are from illicit use. Mostly.
Now it is NOT coming from any legitimate user. 10 years ago it was a mixed bag
Marijuana is the best alternative to opioids for chronic pain management in most cases. I am opioid free today thanks to the green. More veterans need to research this option and free themselves from a spiraling demise.
I have 5836 days sober. I got addicted to OxyContin from legitimate use. I was told it was safer, less addictive. I became dependent overnight. I went from 5-10mg hydrocodone a day for 3 months to 80mg OxyContin. It was 40mg 2x’s a day. That’s like 160 Vicodin a day. It took me 5 years to finally get off.
I think NO HUMAN should be on opiates daily. They have their use, we can have them prescribed for when we need them, but if you have daily pain there is other affective treatments the best being diet adjustment and exercise. (Sounds like BS, but it’s not)
Magnesium in high doses is a incredible muscle relaxer, and trigger point injections, yoga, meditation, low dose physidelics and cannabis is all better than opiates daily.
The fentanyl problem is a problem. 100k people died in 2021 and in my groups and mtgs about 15 died, 50 OD’d last year unintentionally.
The open borders have shown a 95% increase in OD in minors not on opiates. It’s getting into cannabis. The fake pills.
There is MAT that is incredibly effective and life can be good.
God bless to anyone struggling with that DEMON.
90% of friends are dead from fentanyl overdoses including my girlfriend. I’m permanently crippled from an overdose back in 2015. I live in NH which is considered by many the best state in the country.
NH has the highest opioid related deaths per capita.
It’s an actual crisis going on with real death rates, not these conflated deaths involving other demographics and groups of people.
There is too much money to be made for there to ever be a “drug free” community, but I think we have to change the way we view people with substance abuse issues.
Keep it up guys ,
Long time fan
52:04 An old man that steals?! I can't believe it.
No one likes their parents or grandparents getting addicted to opioids and lossing their personalities but yes the rampant overdose deaths are young people without chronic conditions or injuries
Look at the thumbnail. That’s a frickin gorilla in the drivers seat. And we memorialize animals…..take America back.
Been affected by opiates for 10 years. I’m 29, college grad. I could go in depth on the opioid crisis. It’s bad
I was perscibed oxycodone from the dentist and was SO sick I couldn't drive to the hospital and came REALLY close to calling an ambulance but agonized through it and found out the hard way I am alergic to it but am fine w/hydrocodone!?
I’ve been in chronic pain for over 35 years and the argument I’ve had with my Doctor many times, not so much anymore, is if I have meds to take my pain away so I can walk and live my life I’m going to take them, if I run out get me more. That’s what it’s for. Now that I’m in my 60s I put up with more and do a little less, so I don’t have those problems anymore however if anybody seen me in the morning for 4hrs after getting up,that time would be anywhere between 1:30a to 4:00a they would say I’m crazy,but as you get older you just learn to adapt rather then argue all the time.
The in-flight masterbater they're talking about, 4 times? I doubt she said she saw him finish 4 times. Probably just paused when flight attendants were nearby.

Scripts go down, OD's go up… pain pill addicts losing their scripts and turning to street drugs to feed their addiction. Yet another reason to end the drug war
It was too easy for the media to push the opioid crisis as something that came solely from within the country and that bad ol' "Big Pharma reee." Every lazy and uninformed person loves to latch onto that one and blame the companies involved in pharmaceutical distribution rather than the obvious major culprit: the thousands of lbs of pills happily allowed by the current administration to come across the border.
I've been on some form of pain medication for 22 years and I am addicted to them, time I just have to take them because of the addiction and not the pain, it is the down set of having to take this type of medication. And the OxyContin is where it started for me! However, what the doctor started me out with is like night and day to what I take now!!
