If they want to stop giving opiates then they better get ready to start paying out disability benefits again.

Cannabis helps alot

Opioids are incredibly addictive to both body & mind & should only ever be used short term as with all other drugs. Exercise is crucial in pain management & yes it needs to start somewhere and will be incredibly painful to start with but it will largely go.

Masturbation helps, but don’t do it in the supermarket, it’s frowned upon there. So selfish.

They are the only thing that worked for me for a decade until my hundred and some surgery fixed the issue. They shouldn't be given to people that show signs of having an addictive personality. On them a decade. Off six years. No problems.

SUISSE.! 0 décès.! 0 Hospitalisation. Ni masques obligatoire. Ni enfermés.5 mois ! Même symptômes que la grippe !.!

Get to fuck. If I hadn’t had codeine I wouldn’t have made it past my teens. Get, to, fuck. Acupuncture, therapy isn’t gonna stop chronic pain.

Sorry but that's stupid. Having experienced it first-hand exercise doesn't help for ****, and neither does therapy. I tried for years to manage the pain, you just can't, and Tylenol doesn't work either. Opioids at least they work.

Opinion: Therapy instead of opiates does not address the root of chronic painIt is not just patients that will need to be weaned off these powerful drugs but also the doctors prescribing them You're never gonna get rid of opiates. They are still a controlled substance and for good reason. Duh. That’s why opiates were made in the first place.
