I'm only thinking about this bc I just had surgery and I'm on oxy for the first time in 17 years, but, like...

Doctors really claim, like as a profession, that they just didn't know fucking opium was highly addictive and oopsie woopsie did a little fucky wucky and now like a million people are dead?

Cause I really never thought about that, but I took 1 "take 2 every four hours" pill SEVEN FUCKING HOURS AGO and I am still tripping balls and in my current altered state their cutesy little "We just forgot morphine was dangerous" shtick sounds pretty fucking ridiculous.

Oh and the DEA and FDA must have been in on this, too, right? The whole time? Because no one would actually be stupid enough to believe this shit, right?

    Yeh I had wrist surgery last year and shit hurt like fuck for maybe 12-18 hours after the surgery, most of which time I was sleeping off the anaesthesia. I had a coupla oxies in the hospital after waking up and they gave my like 10 or something for at home but I was able to make it through with ibuprofen, paracetamol and ice/heat packs.
