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.
