Do you think opiate pain medications should be outlawed for noncancer sufferers as in chronic pain?

180. And I gave you mine

as a person that has dealt with pain personal and know the toll it has taken on the lives of my children and of course my wife who has stood by my side since day one. I have the right to speak out against ignorance about this subject since most chronic pain suffers do not act in the way of the as your family members that you mentioned. Candy indeed, that is BS and I know that as to be a fact. 99% of doctors do not give these medications out like candy, it sickens me to hear such garbage. my statement is true and it's been this way since
when I first got hurt and even more so today.

BTW I would love to move along but my suffering does not allow me to, due to the folks who think that it is alright to allow others to suffer never ending pain. I hope that your family members find the strength to overcome their addictions, be it drugs, tobacco or alcohol. They need to be strong since there are always going to be temptations out there even if pain medication is outlawed or severely restricted as it seems to be moving in that direction.

All they have to do is dig deep down inside, accept they have problem and look for support from you and other family members, the medical community, God or whatever they need to get over there abuse. There are tools they can use, they must want to use them. If they are gone then that is a shame since they did not have the support they drastically needed to survive. Thank you for the reply and good luck.
