There are prescriptions written for fentanyl? Even now?
Edit I just looked it up. Fentanyl can be prescribed for people for pain of advanced cancer but since 2019 the use has been limited.I am guessing at least 98% of fentanyl overdoses are from cartel supplied drugs.

You know. I don't know all the technical terms. Prescriptions could be for oxycontin and other opioids. Fentanyl may be different but if so it is different in degree not kind. But the point is that these deaths of despair start or many times start when a doctor prescribes some sort of opioid unneccessarily.

I'd never heard of "deaths of despair" before and I've been in this realm for a while now. Where I thought you were headed in your first post and where you are in this post are different. As I read it, "deaths of despair" are the result of a death basically not at the hand of someone else, medical condition or "accident" (a deer runs in front of your car). It would include drug overdose, alcoholism. suicide, etc......

That's really, really, really broad... In that instance a kid who just wants to smoke a joint and get high and it's laced with fentanyl dies would be considered a death of despair....

I'm talking about people who have no intention of dying and whatever they choose to use is laced with fentanyl, or the next generation, tranq. Granted a lot of people are prescribed an opiate for pain, they get hooked, seek stronger drugs to get a high, but they don't choose fentanyl and they don't choose to die.

Most addicts are misdiagnosed as having some other mental condition such as bi-polar, depression, etc. When in reality if you take away the drugs, the secondary condition vanishes. My guess is that's true of despair as well. You take away the drugs and the despair/depression disappears. Once my son was off drugs and clean, he was back to being the happy go lucky kid that he was before.

It sounds like a group of psychologists sat in a room and came up with a catchy phrase called "deaths of despair" and didn't do the legwork to find out what is going on underneath that. I'm sure they got a federal grant to come up with it.

So, a few things for those of us with lived experience. Sometimes kids get hooked and they die because of wrong choices. There are bad people out there lacing drugs with fentanyl to increase their profits and it kills their customers. And as Jesus said, "the poor will always be with us" and so will the depressed and those in despair will always be with us. You're never going to get rid of depression and despair, so fix the drug epidemic that's killing them.
 
It's everything you said. It has been written about in conservative circles for a while now. I would suggest searching the phrase and reading up about it. It is a complex subject. At the center is a culture that has no meaning or purpose beyond pleasure and the removal of pain. Bad actors lacing things with dangerous drugs like fentanyl is part of it. But it starts with people who have nothing else to live for.
 
Telling the it DC city government to screw off is virtually always the right thing to do. The broken clock is right.

I had some yard people( they were white) who believed with all their drugged up hearts this was true. The "gubmint" was out to get us in the 90s.

Chemtrails doing us in or the Cowboys or Texans winning a SuperBowl?
 
hic

Man up. Chemtrail destruction in 50 years or so
Or a Super Bowl for a team in Texas?

I thought you were joking. Chemtrails don't exist. But, peripherally, I can say that aspirations of a super bowl for the cowgirls don't exist either. So, it's too close to call.
 
LOL
Of course I was joking.
I LOVE the conspiracy that since some times in the late 80s the Gov't has been killing all of us with chemtrails.
In a way it is the perfect example of government effectiveness.

That said I know you pilots know stuff.:coolnana:

hic is particularly one of the most true conservatives here.
He also has a wicked sense of humor.
We attribute that to how often he flies in thin air with no oxygen
