RE: Addiction: Choice VS Disease: The False Dichotomy

in #health6 years ago

I don’t think you can call it a choice, even if you were given opiate prescriptions as a kid (I always refused them) you don’t understand anyone else’s brain chemistry nor do I. I have good friends I grew up with who are now heroin addicts & they were exposed to a lot of prescribed opiates at a young age. There families & most of their friends judge them without question. I say we only know what we know & nothing of what’s happening in someone else’s mind. If children were commonly prescribed cocaine I’m sure we would see a lot more cocaine addictions as adults. These companies & drs know the consequences but continue to profit

Sort:  

Form what you're saying, the doctors who prescribe the drugs give the kids no choice than that to become addicts

I think for a lot of people that is true
