Painkiller Epidemic Update: The Real Face of Opiate Addiction

By swallowed
Think about this the next time you crush up an Oxy to get high.

Think about this the next time you crush up an Oxy.

From blogger “Marcus”:

“The face of opiate abuse.

Thats me in a coma for 8 days after an overdose of OxyContin fighting for my life…

Next time you’re crushing up an 80 this could be you.

This picture is very personal to me and struggled with publishing it.

But i knew it must be done.”

    daboss: Sorry so long to moderate your comment. Wish I didn’t have to moderate… but the comment-spamming has become ridiculous… I took nearly every type of painkiller available over the course of about five years; I have been off of everything for approximately 18 months.
