People making decisions around drugs have no experience with drugs and users.

They just get hysterical information about the extreme cases and extrapolate to everyone.

People just need to be supported through hard times and experimentation phases so they come out the other side.

So many people eventually get clean, stop using and get back to having productive lives.

I saw so many unnecessary deaths, friends with potential, die, because we don't want to help and support them. Overdoses are not needed.These aren't street people that make up so much of the hysteria, just middle class normal people that had their life go a certain way.

People don't want fentanyl or fake drugs in general. Access to drugs that can be measured are safe. Opiods are safe, doctors give fentanyl to patients constantly, and you don't come out of surgeries a opioid addict because you got a dose one times.

The hysterical people need to learn there place in the discussion on drugs and get to the side.




Maybe the problem is doctors giving fentanyl to patients constantly.


It's used by anesthesiologists? How do you think it's used?

Just wait until you see who's making decisions about women's health.


Were subjected to a tyranny of "experts" :(
