The opioid epidemic, and the war that Generation Z is waging on authoritative figureheads in the United States are undoubtedly related, and equally as much of a touchy subject as religion and the likes. It's also a subject that opioid addicted individuals more often than not, find hard to discuss openly. In this blog I aim to bring to light many of the hardships that I and countless others, spanning countless generations have endured, as we've waged war against our opioid opressors. I will provide my personal account of the shame and pain that came discreetly prepackaged with the persistent pursuit of prescription and illicit analgesics.

When you know you won't last long at all, but you've cried all the tears you can over it, so you suck it up and hustle another sack til it's time to knock off. I hope I die high. Much love.

My morning in detail.
Your periodic reminder that in people who have been subject to threats and punishment for having emotional responses or ‘inappropriate’ facial expressions, panic attacks look different.
They may look like the person has become calmer and less involved, dismissive, even. Some people become intensely subservient and silent. Some become catatonic.
Panic doesn’t always involve screaming, crying, and obvious signs of distress. It involves an extreme form of the person’s fear response – which can be altered by circumstance, ability, and what they’ve learnt to fear.
Which is to say, it’s not your place to decide someone isn’t having a panic attack, when they’ve told you that’s what’s happening.

the thing about being an addict is, everyone wants you to “get clean” because they care about you so much but the moment you’re using again, they don’t care at all, they’ll just throw you away

Heroin is my car.
Heroin
You know how when you’re in a car, and its pouring down rain, and you go under a bridge, and just for a moment, everything is calm. Everything is quiet, before you come out the other side and back into the chaos? Heroin was my bridge.

A Problem: one of many
As the alley-dwelling, needle hanging from the arm, stigma that has historically accompanied the recreational use of illicit opioids becomes less applicable, and more acceptable where it is seen, the demographic for heroin has expanded exponentially. An alarmingly abundant, and consistently pure supply of heroin ensure prices stay well within the financial reach of anyone who decides to seek out the drug. With the "opioid epidemic" being treated as a Reagan-esq campaign against patients suffering from chronic pain, the line between medicinal, and recreational use has vanished. Expectedly, patients in pain, with no access to their legally obtained narcotic analgesics may seek the relief offered by illicit narcotics. This becomes an issue due to a mistake in the criminal justice/penal systems, wherein one with an assault charge is treated like a child who stole a toothbrush from a drugstore, and someone who is charged with the possession of heroin will likely deal with the repercussions of it for the rest of their life. This implies that it is less of a crime to inflict physical harm on another person, than it is to put a substance into one's own body.
