I get so irritated when I see yet another story about the misuse of opiods and how access is going to be further restricted. M beats himself up about taking pain meds because he feels like a criminal. Watch your husband crumple in pain because he’s trying not to take another pain pill so he doesn’t run out before he’s “supposed” to and see how you feel about limiting access.
I used to tell him, don’t worry, they aren’t talking about stage four, terminal cancer patients, they aren’t going to limit access for people like you… but now it looks like that isn’t going to remain true.
So fuck you addicts, fuck you for making it so terminal patients have to live in pain for the limited life they get… your deaths should be as pain filled as your addiction has caused their lives to be.
