The people I know who have had problems with pills were all repeatedly prescribed them as kids, when their brain was still developing & highly susceptible to drugs engineered to be as addictive as possible. I would bet almost all heroin addicts in the USA were prescribed opiates before they went to what they could keep getting. Every OD death should be treated as a potential murder & traced back to the drs & companies that started the addiction by prescription. I’d love to see metrics on average # of prescriptions & age of prescriptions for all so called “addicts”
