Dr. Gary Bell's Absurd Psychology

Opioid Addiction

11 Aug 2017

Description

Opioid (a form of heroin) addition is taking off like wildfire all over the world. Doctors often introduce opioids when they perscribe them as a pain killer. Just one pill can begin the addiction. It masks pain both physically and mentally. Therefore, people with a mental health diagnosis like depression, anxiety and bi-polar will crave the effects of an opioid. Opioid addiction (once started) takes hold immediately and then the body craves since it takes more to feel the effect. There is a 92% relapse rate once stopped. Listen and learn how to deal with this monster.
