The current opioid crisis is stemmed from prescription drugs. Under the assumption that
there won’t be any addiction problem if one takes for pain control, doctors prescribe
opioids rather freely since early 1990’s. This practice became rampant when doctors were
accused of neglecting patient suffering from pain after surgery and chronic pain disorders.
With drug companies promotion, pain became the 5th vital sign and nurses demanding
doctors to prescribe pain medications. If doctors don’t give enough pain pills, some
patients call the state medical board.
Once these patients become an addict, they get prescription from one doctor to another.
When the resources ran out, they buy them from the street. In a while they can not
afford to buying them. Then they resort to heroin which is cheaper.
Doctors and nurses are part of the problem. In my opinion, opioids should be used sparingly
to control the pain and patient should be told about the risk of addiction before they start to
take it.

Once a narcotic addict, always narcotic addict. That is my personal dictum.
The statement that opiods should be used sparingly is easier said than done.
Narcotic addicts or dependents will ask for more and more dosages or quantities every time of their visits.
I always turned them to the Drug Control Center since I was unable to manage them.
Then I didn't hear from them again.
When I read news of suicides of actors or actresses who had problems of depression and addiction problems,
I believe that their personal fights against narcotic addiction were lost and their despondency drove them
to their ends in this tragic manners.
Our term of 마약, 痲藥, Demon's pills, are really appropriate description.
Is Marijuana any better than common narcotics? I think not.

I always thought that Cocaine is a God-sent blessing for the immature rich people
and Heroin is the same for stupid sociopaths.
Both narcotics dispatch "the unfit and undesirables" of our society to the hell quickly.
Just like garbage pickup trucks come to our home and pick up what we throw away,
our society needs narcotics to get rid of what we don't need but can not throw away.
I am sort of against the effort of rehabilitating these kinds of people.
Most of the time it doesn't work or very inefficient.
It's a waste of money and time. Let them go where they want to go.
If they go to the hell quickly, it's wonderful.
If they don't, just wait for them to kill themselves or just lock them up in the jails forever.
