Careful now, I wouldnt want you to be labeled as a drug addict.

I don't think it is stupid that causes them to go right back. It is wild to see the grip addiction can have on someone, especially opiates. We have a large recovery/active addiction attendance at our church and I have become close with several of them. Had one individual who relapsed and wound up barely surviving an OD. Spent a couple weeks in the hospital. He was clean while there and I will never forget the conversation we had in his hospital room, as genuine a conversation as I have ever had with a person. I remember this part verbatim: 'I'm so tired of this and I'm scared that it is going to kill me. I don't want to die' as they cried in their hospital bed. That individual died of an OD about two months after that.

Addiction is real. Im sorry your friend died. People like that dont want to do the drug/drink/whatever. Its way past the point of enjoyment and is a completely different world from doing a few key bumps with some friends. Good on you for being there for them and being supportive.

Sad, baffles how people do not realize the dangers of this but seems like very winter we hear of stuff like this


Damn sad

I was talking about this with a DEA agent who does global drug trafficking stuff. He's based in Rome at the moment. I asked why they do that because it seems bad for business to me as well. His response was, "That's what a normal person would think. Strung out people think that if it killed someone it must be really good and the person who died just couldn't handle it, and now they have to have it."

I got the same explanation a few weeks ago from. DHEC Pharmacy Officer, completely opposite thinking to me....

It happens every single day in Spartanburg and Greenville. I guess they just put this instance in the news because it was (5) a one time.

I watched a drug docuseries on Netflix a while back. The dealer actually admitted to bumping up the Fent until it killed someone then back if off just a little. Basically running the ragged edge. He said they would flock to him after that.

My buddy who is an ED doc says they administer Narcan almost daily. Most of the time they bounce right back and are ready to get back to the party. He said half of them are frequent fliers. Can't fix stupid.

Are you sure he isnt administering Viagra?

Calm down there Scarface.
Your attempt at normalizing outlandish behavior failed. That doesn’t mean that everyone who disagreed with you is naïve on the ways of the world.

Coroner released the names and said all died of carbon monoxide poisoning. A generator was apparently being used inside the home.

I cant count on two hands the number of people that I called friends in High School who are now under the dirt because of a needle/overdose. I've gotten kind of thick skinned about it. I hate it but at the same time, I cant fix it and am tired of hearing about it. You cant help people who cant help themselves. It took me a long time to figure that out. I invested a lot of time and energy into folks who had no desire to make themselves better. Wish I could have it back.
