I survived 33 tomotherapy radiation treatments to my face and endured Cisplatin chemotherapy once a week for 5 weeks so I would be alive to see Trump destroy my country and democracy. If there were a god, He would have to be some sadistic, sick bastard. The real reason so many people are overdosing on Oxy and Fentanyl is the complete loss of hope for our futures. I wish I hadn't survived to see this. It makes my suffering a bad joke.

" I wish I did not take the chemo and rads." Is alive and kicking. The treatments made me deathly ill for over a year. My cousin Chris was killed in a truck crash 3 months after I finished treatment and my first thoughts were what I would give to trade places with him. Just CRASH ! Gone. No tests, no meds, no anticipation. My thyroid is dead now. I expected some improvement, but nope, a third of my hair and eyelashes fall out about every 3 months. My bones are brittle, and a fall in Nov shattered my pelvis. I'm not getting enough exercise, and getting the weight off from bed and Physical therapy is dammed near impossible. My formerly perfect complexion is getting splotches and scaly patches, and those ugly wrinkles on my upper lip after a lifetime of no straws, no whistling, no sun and no cigs.

Then there is the daily Trump. I want him to drop stupid comments and lies to once a day. I've been in a bad mood since Nov '16. Now I get rage every evening from the news. Oh, yes, this is not what I consider living.

It is painful to read what you wrote...I hope you were just being melodramatic and didn't mean what you wrote.
Live to enjoy as many days as possible. You can make others happy as well as yourself. .

Before the turn of the previous century, no drug was illegal. Mother's rubbed a baby's gums with opium tincture. Marijauna was prescribed for asthma. Heroin was invented to cure opium addiction. Midwives did most of the delivering of babies with better stats than today's. Abortion was not illegal, either.

Said overdosing really became a problem during the Obama Admin. I lost two friends I went to school with during that time period.

When I was in college in the 1970's I knew a girl that gave her baby reds for teething pain. He survived, but I have no idea if it did anything for his IQ. Most of my HS and College friends drank beer and smoked pot. It did kind of hit the fan when the guys sent to Viet Nam came home with heroin addiction and PTSD that was never recognized or treated. People need drugs to relieve the pain and suffering of living. They always have.

@ForTheBirds Fair point, but keep in mind that many types of drugs have rather annoying side effects though. For many decades now people have dealt with pain and suffering in daily life, and yet the trouble with drug addiction was not as widespread as say during the 1940's as it is now. Medical professionals also play a part in drug addiction, go see a doctor over what could amount to just a mild ailment and alot of people would not find it difficult to get prescribed strong pain killers.
