The goverment has done the exact oppisite of stopping this crisis they are a big part of why we are here now. Dr.s misinform patience they become addicted the goverment steps in and boy did they solve that problem. China provides Fentanyl at a way better then now form. Thanks goverment for making china outlaw their Fent glad Mexico picked up the ball and is now killing us with their garbage. WTG Goverment NOW WHAT

@Chelled I agree 💯. I live in Tennessee and the small county I live in there is so much Fentanyl, for a while it was like I was hearing of a overdose everyday, some survived.. most didn't. Its heartbreaking. The government needs to step up.

Yes a weapon of mass destruction!! Someone stated that it's "terrorism"!! 😡

Definitely, government is responsible in a way. They cut off alot of pharmaceutical needs for people who needed help. I know because I've been there. I was cutting food for a dinner we had at home and I cut off part off my thumb. Not even that emergency with my blood still pouring from cut was not enough for any pain meds. Was just given Tylenol. Government will not help. They know where the drugs are coming from, all the way from China. As a native who understands the deceit of government, just want to let you know I understand your frustration and betrayal of the system.

Your so closer minded and ignorant. Before you talk look at the news the government is trying to stop the problem. Look at the bigger picture and quit being so Ignorant

I appreciate this comment. I agree, i also suffered terrible anxiety as a child and young adult.

I have anxiety from a stroke and use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. The Happiness Trap by Russell Harris MD is where to start.

I’m so sorry for your loss. It wasn’t your fault or even her fault. Addiction is so unfair.

So selfish,poor kids

@@maureenbryan3465 She isn’t selfish It’s an illness

Love to you ❤️ praying for you ❤

She is. Via the Internet. I'm in England.

Agree

Outside America... We'd tell her to F-Off! Saying that drug and alcohol addiction is "Genetic and a disease comparing it to any type of Cancer and Heart defects, it's nothing but a choice that becomes a strong habit and dragging other Countries into it... it's just PATHETIC! I feel sorry for the Children 💔

And What happened to "JUST SAY NO TO DRUGS! Wasn't that the only solution when others were indeed dying of this "disease??! 🙄

Ditto!

That 5 year old girl was amazing to know to run to get her grandma next door, but how traumatic 😢

She was breastfeeding…. How horrible…. Honestly thank goodness she didn’t ever feed the baby. Who knows how lethal this trash is

This was the same scenario my best friend died from. Her precious pre school grand daughter found her deceased in bed. I think of her everyday. What a huge loss.

Its much more important to teach our children in school about pronouns, men having periods and micro aggressions. That’s sarcasm.

There is a special island that people profitting from drugs should be housed on. Now, the jails/prisons are so crowded, they are not considering drug selling as a violent offense unless some1 dies that they can link them to. Too many of yhe upper heads are making money off of drugs, that's why it's being ignored. My daughter is grown & I'm so fortunate drugs were not a problem for her. What happened to people just wanting to try a little weed back in the day? Geeshh

That is a great idea

Too busy trying to put gawd and the buybull back on school. Rethugs will never allow factual drug info being taught in the schools

@@GiGi_to_3 There are currently 2 islands housing drug profiteers. They are called the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Sooo sorry for your loss!

I am so sorry for your loss, but please know fentanyl "poisoning" is an fentanyl overdose. He did overdose. The drug dealers don't follow FDA guidelines. The key is to educate people not to take drugs unless they get it directly from the pharmacy themselves because they were prescribed it.

No kidding. It’s weird to me that some towns will prosecute And some are like we have too many of these to investigate. Like, if you are putting LETHAL amounts of something into ANYTHING and giving it to someone to ingest.. how is that not MURDER

​@@Julia-en1okno. Technically he was murdered. He didn't OD. Also, he didn't OD because he wasn't knowingly taking it. He was poisoned with it. See how that works? If you drink some juice and it is loaded w rat poison, did you OD on rat poison or were you poisoned?

They take the drugs knowing what can happen,come on.

The obiden admistration has blood on their hands.

WHY BIG PHARMA PUTS FENTANYL IN XANAX??? WHY THEY PUT FENTANYL ON ANY MEDICINE?????? WHY THEY GIVE FENTANYL TO ANY PATIENT??? BIG PHARMA CASHING MONEY AS USUAL AT THE COST OF MILLIONS OF LIVES!!! Yeah... the cartels... Ppl gets addict first... in th Hospitals or buying stuff on a pharmacy... later they go to the streets to get more!!! WHY DON'T YOU CANCEL AND ERASE FENTANYL OF ALL YOUR MEDICINES??? Dosctors got their bonus giving ppl fentanyl... Evil Big Pharma+Hospitals profitting big time while destroying thousands and thousands of lives!!! Big Pharma 👹👹👹👹👺

Agree!!!

@@bethlilley1709 Like COVID 19, Fentanyl was rolling into the country hot & heavy under the Trump administration more than anything or did you conveniently forget that?

A weapon of mass destruction is a little overkill its bad but thats a little to extream they do choose to take it and yes even though it is an addiction it dosent threaten to wipe out a whole country

Stay strong. There's people that want you around. Like me. You can do it.

Methadone works for me; I used opiates, including heroin, for over 30 years. Earned a PhD in mathematics, but am now retired.

U sick in ur head barney the way u say it so casually

You people need to stop speaking in a general idea, your OPINION simply does not apply to everyone.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Recovery is something you choose every single day. It’s never cured. We as addicts must accept this and learn to fight the good fight every single day.

I So feel for you and others going through your rehab and struggles, me and my wife have gone through this with my son, who is now doing very well and has a wonderful job beautiful girlfriend and lives in a nice house, ....but all that means NOTHING. ....I worrie and pray for him everyday because of the demons that are hovering around him, I can only emagine how hard it is for him you and others. I pray for God's hand over you , to protect and guide you through this bad phase in your life, ...you can and will get through this, and one day look back and say WOW, I made it, and one day you will help others. THE ONE AND MAIN THING I HAVE SEEN AND LEARNED ...you must remove anyone from your past that can bring you Down, and I'm talking about life long friends or even family members that think they are helping you out but still peddling with dope and others that mess with dope......there's a reason it's called dope. Blessings to you

Praying for your strenght...lord hold her hand along this journey 🙏💕🙏

@@CC-xs1hh Amen....praying an knowing your son Will be ok in Jesus name...you have many warriors praying for you an family.. no evil will come near his dwelling🙏🙏🙏🙏💕

🙏🏿

Why take drugs in the first place?

She is not a great speaker, just a sad and frustrated adult rant something beyond her control. Sorry to say this, but you cannot just use those wars to justify our action and demand others to heed our demands. They are nations with different way of living. We LOST Afghanistan, we only make the Muslim world hate us for our action in the middle east. Fentanyl was also illegally manufactured in China set up by the international mafias/cartel, our recent hostility with CCP has cause them to not care about those fentanyl illegally distributing outside of China as it is not their problem, they don't have to bow down to us so irresponsible mothers like you can play ignorance. I think this mother is completely naïve thinking that eradicating the cartel will stop the fentanyl overdose, the Mexicans cartel was destroyed, break up only to create even more cartel. What we need is acceptance, we need to be more open on taking drugs rather than being forced to keep it a secret. Your daughters made a choice of not telling you about her drug abuse, it must has been something traumatic to start such activity. You should understand this, YOU FAILED as a mother, you must have did something to make her drug habit a secret. We have to be open about drug abuse, accept and help instead of shame. Drug shouldn't be illegal as long as the use is controlled.

I agree. It is so needed.

These stories humanize the numbers we hear on the news.

Well said! Her words are still in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for your comments.

Yes, no parent should have to bury their child. 😕

probably because a lot of these pill heads come from single mother homes

The worst. A mom.

Thank you for your understanding. It's so difficult... words can't explain. -Vince's Momma forever

So sorry for this loss.

She was such a beautiful young lady my prayers and condolences goes to her family and children so heartbreaking

Bet the husband knew

@@jerryscray1789 They said the husband knew she was taking anxiety meds, I doubt he knew she was consuming fentanyl because no rational person would support their loved ones taking that.

@@13isa45 Fentanyl would have showed in her toxicology report. Someone knows something.

@@michelledavis400 Fentanyl showing in the toxicology report doesn’t equal the husband knowing her intentionally consuming fentanyl beforehand

Michelle Davis how right you are.My 39 year old son died Dec 30 2021 of fentanyl.I never knew he was on drugs. I always thought you could tell. Not true. His skin was beautiful he had a perfect weight . Maybe a little over like me. He always dressed nice and his personality never changed

Sadly her narcan isn’t going to help her if she’s on her own 🥺

And this means she knows she's at risk of dying. She's willing to take the risk. If it happens, it's not your fault. Pray for her, but it's her choice to make. 😐

When I was in active addiction, with no place to live, and my family had nothing to do with me I wanted to die. I didn't see a way out. But once I had enough trauma i got out. She is doing dope with her kid? Why does she still have her kid if she is smoking pills? How can she afford that and be a junkie? Just doesn't make sense

@@GirlJay67 Her daughter is 25 & she says she has a friend who provides her with the pills. I said I’m sure he doesn’t do it for free and she said sometimes you have to pay in other ways.I pray for them every day.

@@angelreed6182 oh no. I've seen other girls in her position. He is providing housing as well?

Then spoke Jesus again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 8:12 Fix your eyes on Jesus!

But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, brings forth death. James 1:14-15 There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that you cannot do the things that you would. Galatians 5:16-17

Please stay strong & don't use. I just lost my oldest, my son (25) on 11.15.2022. He thought he was using heroin but it was laced with fentanyl. He wasn't even home for one month from rehab. I cannot describe what life is like for us families who are left behind. It's unbearable. I'll keep you in my thoughts & prayers. I'm so proud of you for not using.

What did u take for the withdrawals and what helped??

@@lindaosorio9535 I take clonidine it works very well

Her daughter was 5 1/2 and the girl was 16 when she died. Wtf

@@erinc4648 You read that wrongly. She was 26.

Very well said.

@@LaSouthernGemini thank you

Thank you for sharing. Hold true to that good path.

@Enoch Clarke how do you look so young 😳 Wow and here I thought addiction makes you look older but the genetics 🧬 is clearly stronger I suppose

@@m.m.m531 God bless you for your kind words. It's only because of God, I don't look like what I've been through! Peace!

Even without México, China and India would find another way to get the product into the US unfortunately

I believe our president has a son going through addiction and he passed the law the first day in for the system to carry on with letting the people from outside our boarder gain access to stop the title 42 but our government had a judge like the red ppl had it stopped and want to have control to stop people gaining access to health care and education so now people will have no choice but to gain access illegal ways and they will bring drugs to survive and our drug problem will continue for ever and the government wants to kill us off especially the blue ppl we are trash to the rich ppl basically it's all bad and we should pass a petition to get drugs legalized and have it sold safely to of age people with true reasons at a higher cost not for free anymore and taxed to make money bc our country is suffering bad and going straight down hill. Plus if ppl had to pay regular prices to not die they would most likely not consume it being there's a chance they will die would denture them but the prices are very very low like one dollar a pill for a death sentence it's a shame it has got out of control and I'm worried for my own kids understand I have five kids and they have already been informed of these deadly drugs and I'll keep on doing my work to be prepared for the worst and hope for the best and may the women passed away from this death sentence pill and not even a drug anymore she may rest in peace and hope her family the most beautiful and strong sides to continue this fight and help rally the ppl to help to get this death sentence put down for good . And being the drugs are coming from China we should america stop buying good from China and put a stop to the government working with chica bc they are the real enemy not the ppl fleeing their country from the drugs and gangs who are lined up at the border with new born babies freezing to death burning plastic to stay warm this is not good for our future and I hope the president Mr. Biden runs again next yr to continue his fight to save this country and our fellow border towns like Mexico . Also last but not least America should become co existent with Mexico and we should be named americona and it should be we're all one country and the cartel needs to be moved over next to China so they can keep on doing what they do best . Just my opinion maybe I'm wrong but hell if it's never tried who will have a chance no I no us not anyone we all are suffering period and fyi COVID came from China if I'm correct so why are they allowed to come here ?? They should be banned not our ppl living next door if they gave us COVID we would have had it way back when the cartel first started many many yrs ago so do the math it's not mathing!!! And wake up we need to support our president and help him to fight the battle with Congress who truly has power basically and they don't care about us they only care of they money and they will continue to hurt everyone below and next to them. Amen sending prayers for everyone and sorry such long post . I'm tired of the crap out kids face and us humans were all like living inhumane and we need help from the government to get it together ASAP!!

Ask yourself why the Biden administration refuses to close the border then follow the money. One would think having a drug addict son would give him empathy....

They have declared it an emergency, they just aren't doing anything about it that will actually help. All they do is hand out drug paraphernalia and "increase funding" so they can continue to do nothing.

The mother said that the drugs are coming from Mexico but I read somewhere that Mexico are suing the US as they are blaming them for their own issues with crime. Could be bad karma if the Mexicans are correct.

Naloxone is the active ingredient in Narcan and is also available in many generics as a nasal spray. In fact, the brand name Kloxxado delivers a higher dose of naloxone than Narcan (Kloxxado-8mg per dose, Narcan-4mg per dose). Naloxone can reverse an opioid overdose if administered quickly enough. Some areas have Naloxone available in the brand name Narcan or generic versions available for free. It is important to recognize that Naloxone is the drug, Narcan is just a brand name. Whenever someone uses the word "Narcan" in place of "naloxone", they're devaluing all the other equally effective brand options and promoting a specific pharmaceutical company.

Reagan allowed crack to destroy United States. Fentynal is chickens coming to roost

America didn’t forget. Our corrupt government officials chose to take our tax dollars and send them to other corrupt government officials, in other countries. Our government couldn’t care less about American citizens.
