[SPONSORED] State of Addiction: What Every Family Needs to Know About Opioids 

What about the people who suffer from real debilitating pain and never took the pills to get high but to get rid of the physical pain and don’t abuse the drugs the news really doesn’t talk about that this isn’t a one size fits all not everyone is gonna die from pain medication not everyone can just take OTC medication for their pain all the cdc did in 2016 was cause people to commit suicide or convert to other drugs that’s causing more harm than good I agree these medications called opioids/opiates aren’t for everybody they are for people who have surgery or have cancer or serious illnesses and these drugs aren’t supposed to be used for mental health issues

The people that get addicted to that euphorical feeling....

“ we are not are kid’s friends “👏🏽👏🏽

As a mom of a sixteen year old in high school I've watched enough of these videos to educate myself and i will never say not my child.

My father got me into methamphetamine and crack cocaine at 16 I don't know how it happened. I eventually quit and then he introduced me to morphine Dilaudid and Percocet I signed my death warrant that day. I spent 20 years trying to get clean and I have been clean or the past six years. A completely ruined my life and I became homeless for years and finally live in government housing but I'm unable to work. It's catch 22

The reason why so many people get addicted to it and so many people don't is the people that become addicted are the ones that have experienced trauma at birth and that means they have been injected synthetic hormones at birth to speed up the mother's labor so the doctor can catch his plane on time.... So when they inject the synthetic hormone into the mother's IV bag it gets to the baby and then the mother's body stops producing the natural hormone and then that baby spends the rest of his life trying to feel that euphoric feeling and then you introduce an opioid and that's it that's that feeling of love that was taken away at birth.... Because what goes on at birth between a mother and a child is what they call"the love cocktail"..... So when they inject the synthetic hormones into the mother's IV bag it interrupts what the baby's receiving and now the baby is receiving a synthetic hormone....... So that's why some people you know they welcome that euphoric feeling because it was taking away from them at birth and they don't realize it the mothers don't realize it... big pharma... Knows all about it and that's why they produce these sort of medications because they know that people will become addicted they know that they'll start putting up methadone clinics and everybody's going to be working and doctors and nurses who went to school and paid their education to serve the evil pharma will be working all at the expense of an innocent life..... For example during the pandemic my daughter had a baby in the hospital I told her not to have a baby in the hospital they will separate you from your family and nobody will be able to advocate for you.... While we waited in the parking lot because we were not allowed in the hospital.... They administered fentanyl into her IV bag.... And then 20 minutes later they said oh the baby's heartbeat is dangerously low we are going to have to do a C-section... $$$$$$$$which is more money for the hospital and the doctor and the anestheologist...... My daughter was totally healthy gained minimal weight was very healthy all through her pregnancy.....

The thing is what if someone is in severe and complex pain and if they arent on any pain relief it would be hell for them And their Doctor prescribes them pain meds what are they going to do suffer

Iv had opiate addiction for 28 years if lost friends,,it dont make u a bad person it's just we made bad decisions,,,,I'm sorry for your loss

I have 2 grandsons ages 20 and 14. I am so worried that they will be drawn into addiction. I have had a conversation with both of them. Most of the time its6hard to get them off their phones long enough to have a serious conversation. I hope I got through to them😢

Tragic. Who knows who could get addicted to these highly addictive, dangerous drugs. Today's drug scene is not like when I grew up. Just have a few drinks instead. People please take care and be safe.

You progress to death. My sister in law was using but I didn't know it. It started with pain meds after her back surgery and it led to her death. God bless her soul. She left 3 children behind, her youngest had just turned 9.

I’ve lived in Port Charlotte 2yrs…and now I know what is scaring me. Thank you! ❤️💐🙏

What’s with that stupid music overlay .

Great job Everyone!!

“Our children are not our friends.”

…what is needed is a pain~killer that is not addictive and not deadly….

BARC is great resource and the staff are empathetic and professional. My daughter was there.

Crazy so worried about this

❗️ Whether it’s a pain patient, a person who has taken too much called Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) or on the street drug use. They all need a medical based oversight program. These decisions should not be made by politicians who have no medical expertise. They need to be made by physicians and patients.

…oh please…how many of those kids will listen to a health alert?

Sponsored by who? Opiates give chronic pain patients back our lives. WE ARE NOT ADDICTS!

Mom will go above and beyond to save and protect their children. This is crazy.

This lady said the doctor didn't know Oxycontin addicted and killed! Wrong, doctors know and can be held accountable in a court of law for murder! If someone sold drugs on the street that killed they would be charged for murder. Why are doctors and shrinks mostly exempt???

She is a great mom ... happy woman day

Lord have mercy 🙏

You know that taking down such large hauls of drugs must be taking out the governments competition...that's why the streets are still filled with it...the government making money to support ukraine

Why do some people get addicted to hydrocodone and then there's people like me that have never gotten addicted and I have taken for over 20 years

The photos of Kyle show the quintessential, clean cut, all-American young man. His mom is savvy & the family took all the right steps to prevent an O.D. His death never should have happened. This is the type of reporting that gets the Fentanyl contamination issue thru to people, and can save lives. Bravo, NBC south Florida!

ONE SIDED BLURRING THE LINE BETWEEN PAIN MEDS AND STREET JUNKIE ADDICTION!!!

Opioids are great

Now everyone has to go to the streets

We don’t know if we are going to get addicted until we take these drugs. It can be any of us.

This is a government problem, this is a moneymaker for the government. They're making money and people are dying. Stop making the drug. Stop making the drug. PERIOD

AS LONG AS ITS EASIER TO OBTAIN THAN MAINTENANCE MEDS ITS GONNA CONTINUE TO GET WORSE

Well ultimately it comes from the doctors..... Volume and codeine and percocet and all those things have been affecting families for years years..... My dad died from it so I'm just saying it's been going on for a long time my dad was 58 when he died but he was extremely addicted to code Cain and volume and his doctor kept prescribing it kept prescribing it I couldn't understand why and the thing is it makes you feel worse after and when my mom was in the hospital they were giving her morphine and I said no and they kept giving my mother morphine and it only lasts 20 minutes you know what I mean and I'm thinking why would you give somebody this drug when it only lasts 20 minutes and it's highly addictive well I'll tell you why because once your mother gets out of the hospital now she's going to have to go to a rehab center and now they're going to make even more money.... So you got three shifts of nurses.... And I tell the nurse put it in the notes that they're not to give my mother this morphine.... And then I show up in the evening shift and I see my mom's a little loopy.... And they gave her morphine and then the nurse says oh I'm so sorry I didn't see the notes....

Real sufferers of botched spinal surgeries, such as myself, should not be penalized for the imprudence of addicts. I was forced to change countries so that i could get the relief I need, and now live a pretty normal life. One grows accustomed to the correct prescribed amount. If one does not have an addictive personality, it is only medicine. Severe surgery induced neuropathic pain is no joke, trust me. It is astounding that with today's advancements, honest practitioners cannot tell the difference between addiction and need. As usual, politics interferes with science.

Outlaw sports this child was in pain due to sports

Much llove

No, they are not 70% addictive. I worked in pain management and addiction medicine for decades and a chronic pain and cancer patient for over 40 years.

Heroin and other opioids has always been a whites choices of drugs.

It wasn't a issue when it was just black people.

Searching thru you're kid's room says right there the relationship has been damaged. If you have do a jail style shake down, digging through your kid's dresser drawers, reading their diary etc., you have already failed as a parent. Your kid will automatically hide things from you, because you have betrayed their trust by violating their privacy. Only a good parent will make their child feel safe to tell them anything, maintaining a solid bond of trust. If kid's feel safe telling you anything~ you stay in their circle, if you betray their trust~ you are now the outsider (not to be trusted).

Every time a doctor prescribes an opiate he gets a kickback and a bonus..... That's how they pay off that expensive college education

Fet-nole? It’s Fen-tan-yl. 3 syllables, phonetic. Why do people hillbilly this word?
