But isn't fentanyl and heroïne highest rated in terms of overdosis ? Not physical damage no way alcohol is much more damaging thats for sure . But still alcohol is used by most people you have to account for that no?
"Highest rated" by who? You have to account for the fact that there are chronic pain patients who also use opioids, ontop of "addicts" who use street opioids. So there are probably just as many people using some form of opioid as there are people who get wasted, statistically speaking.
If most opioid overdoses are from super potent fentanyl & poly-substance use, then that means the actual OD numbers on opioids (which already lower than alcohol) is even lower than that, because you can't blame an opioid for the death of some one who has alcohol, benzos, stimulants & then OD's on fentanyl. Yet a lot overdoses like that get counted as "opioid deaths" anyway.
I had 15 years of using opioids including heroin & never once overdosed. It didn't take me long to realize that you are not as likely to OD on opioids as mainstream propaganda has convinced everyone to think. Especially if you're educated & responsible enough to asses your own tolerance & not mix opioids with 500 other downers like I did.
Most opioid overdoses are also accidents, because people are not taught that it's dangerous to combine CNS depressants with opioids.
Ironically in places where opioids are legal (including heroin), they seem to have LESS to NO "opioid deaths".... Wonder why that is.
In fact, Switzerland did a study in the 2000's where they gave prisoners heroin daily & for awhile. And there was not one death the entire time & they also noted that the prisoners on heroin were more likely to work & be active than those who weren't.
Most of what people believe about heroin & opioids is general is propaganda put out by the lovely US of A. The country with the highest incarceration rate, still putting people in cages for exerting their right to bodily autonomy.
In pain or nothings working for your depression? Well of course we can't give you opiates!! Cause we care SO MUCH about your safety & wellbeing! But you can legally go out & drink yourself to death if you'd like! Freedom!!! - The US
