Let’s put you on the most addictive and impossible to get off medication I can think of. You will get no benefit from this anti depressant at all but the manufacturers will make lots of money. If your lucky you won’t have thoughts of suicide during your start up but many do. It’s all based on a theory that’s not testable. With pain medication you have a fighting chance of getting off later if your pain disappears. Not with this which I prescribed to you after a brief interview because there is no test to see if you actually have a shortage of transmitters in your brain like serotonin. No with this drug your hooked for life. If you try to stop you will go crazy. You’ll probably get fat and will have an imbalance in your brain of neurotransmitters that this drug caused. Good luck. Go see your dope dealer.

She wants pizza Tuesdays

So much for the experts! Pure BS!

Use Kratom!!! Drs can’t tell and you will not need them!!

The old low serotonin level that was proven wrong years ago!! There is no lowering of serotonin in depression dopes. OMG can you believe these so called big pharmaceutical representatives.

He says everything you never say to a quack!! They are the first people who would cry if they had pain. Thanks Mrs Freud! Frauds

Someone save this video for the lawsuits this will cause! I'm dying from chronic back pain and suffering but told "that is just how it is" and "you're in such bad pain that you can't have anything for that pain because you would just abuse it" even though I have No History of abusing my pain medication that I was on for 3 years before getting cut off cold turkey because my doctor got caught breaking a rule! That was in 2015, now I'm 40 and can't walk or lift anything without hurting myself Badly! I'm not able to sleep tonight, my bed feels like a slab of concrete... AGAIN! I'm trying everything that might help the pain and failure is always the outcome! I'm a broken man, my gf broke up with me because she was hurting me during bedplay, I've had to give up my art, photography and the one true love, Driving! That was all I wanted to do and now it kills me! It shouldn't be so easy to buy poisonous drugs off the street than it is to get Safe Medicine from a CARING DOCTOR! What you doctors did was for Money as you get paid more for keeping those in pain suffering and 100% more likely to overdose off street drugs! There is Plenty Of Proof! You didn't spend enough to cover all the evidence because you were GREEDY! (Just remember, you reap what you sow, Karma is a bigger Bitch than you)

What if you had a drug problem but later in life you broke your back and burned yourself horribly, do you get punished now and they say sit and scream better to give aomeone meds and risk they dont need it then let someone w legit serious pain have. A miserable life. These videos are made to help contribute to patient profiling

Intereogarion a little bit? Total b s

Glad I didn’t go to this nursing school lol! 😂 oh come on this is a joke. Everyone is a drug seeker these days. Bullshit….. I’ve been on pain pills for a while and have managed to reduce my own dose, yet I still get looked at every time I go to the dr I’m On a very low dose and just about to take the plunge and get off the last little bit. We are not criminals we are in pain.

I’ve been on Doxepin for stomach pain (the medication they give him at the end of the video) and it is a joke for pain. It made me feel very out of it and sleepy. It did help my anxiety though!

The war on drugs is a complete and utter failure. We waste so many billions each and every year to no avail. The DEA,CDC and FDA have caused the biggest overdosing epidemic in American history. We now have more people overdosing on fentanyl and nitazenes than actual prescription opioids! The production cuts on controlled substances are killing people. Now the DEA is going to roll out a new telehealth policy that doesn’t allow prescribers to write for controlled substances over a video call. This is going to kill/send more people to the streets as well.

Not drug seeking behavior. Pain relieving behavior. I guarantee you cannot see "drug seeking" in this video. Crackpots. Not your job to read minds. For a guy that's acting, he sure looked like someone in pain. 30 pills every 4 hours. What dose? Did you ever consider he might need a higher dose? Of course not. They never do.

My sister was turned away at a hospital in Brooksville Florida because they thought she was drug seeking because she was in so much pain. They actually called a cab and a man insecurity put her in it and drove her home. She couldn’t even get out of the cab, her children had to get a kitchen Chair to bring to the end of the driveway for her to sit on. They called a second ambulance and took her to another hospital in which they found that she had a broken femur and a broken pelvis. The medical community has taken this way too far.

Assume patients are junkies unless they prove otherwise. That’s the wanked off mindset among doctors and nurses now.

Who exactly defines " drug seeking behavior" Oh yeah, it's when your tired of being in pain all the time and ask for help

These "medical professionals" are confused. There is a huge difference between seeking drugs and seeking pain relief. Give the meds trather than punishing pain patients. Shame on you all. Btw, ROM isn't necessarily a sign he's not in pain. People do what they're told even when it hurts. He should have stopped when it started hurting, but like me, he keeps going even when he's in excruciating pain. Mental health hogwash. No such thing. He's in emotional distress due to pain.

This is infuriating. You have got to be kidding me. Complete bulls**t.

America is the only damn country the prescribes Narcortic meds the way we do. Shameful. 90% of the Worlds pain meds right here.

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE acting by ALL 3 and what a crock of SHIT!!

Doc muh back hurts, hers your pills, thanks doc!

Let's give him some crazy medicine lol.

What a joke

Patient: * gets prescribed pain killers* Dr: *says patient is addicted to opiates* Also Dr: * prescribes a different opiate (suboxone, etc) to get them off the first one. Either way, big pharma gets their money. These people don’t care about you. It’s a business, nothing more.

OMG Seriously. Wait till you Doctors are in pain . But I'll bet you Doc's will have your doctor buddies take care of that for you Wink Wink. For those in pain consider moving to Mexico they will take care of you. They're not crazy down there like they are in states.

This is crap.

First of all, the idea that "drug seeking" is so frowned upon is abhorrent. When we are in paint, of course we're seeking medication that will help us feel better! But are all looked at with suspicion, like we are criminals because we are in pain and from experience know what medications help us feel even a little bit better

Gaslight city over here 😤 Classic case of sciatica…Give him something to not be in agony and get an MRI rather than waiting for him to lose bladder control because it sounds like he slipped a disc…if he can barely sit up for long periods, PT without adequate relief isn’t going to be feasible. So crazy to see a psychologist sent to a room for back pain 🤦‍♀️ I’m surprised they weren’t trying to sell him on getting a Spinal Cord Stimulator in addition to the injections that only provide temporary relief at best and have been shown to have major consequences over time. I have 2 stimulators and am lucky that at least 1 worked but have a lifetime of surgeries ahead with the risk of being paralyzed each time like some close friends have been. I live in severe chronic pain due to a nerve condition that has taken over my body and legit burnt my left leg off of my body 2 years ago. Under-medication and stripping the chronic pain community of their meds altogether is killing us off, and talking about my feelings or taking anti-depressants doesn’t do crap for severe pain. The pendulum has swung way too far from over-prescribing to making everyone suffer 🤕 Never forget that #chronicpainkills

I have 3 chronic pinched nerves in my back and the right side goes from my back, right leg is still hurting to my front, the Percocet has been the only thing that has helped, I’d like to see these doctors go through it and then talk to me

They prescribe Opiods and then they tell us, OOOOPS. sorry you can't have anymore! For people who have CHRONIC PAIN it is miserable ! I suffer from Chronic Pain Rheumatoid Arthritis, Scoliosis, Hip Dysplasia, degenerative hip disease and the list goes on, and on! I have been fighting for the right to not be in pain for years! My doctors don't care that I am in constant pain. I am also a retired Long Hauler ... I drove a 15 - Speed Peterbilt for 12 years and yes, I unloaded my own Trucks for years. I am a 5'7" female. Who weighed 140 lbs. Soaking wet. To say the least I was a tough little gal! Now I suffer on a daily basis. I am 60 years old and can no longer work at all! No disability, no retirement. No way to get any, and then to make matters worse, my doctors make me feel like I'm faking it! Sometimes I wonder why I am still here? Please ask your Doctors to listen and treat you as a human! We are human! We are not drug seekers!!! We are in pain!

There's NO doctor that would spend this much time with a patient, especially since most Dr. offices double book or schedule 15 min intervals per patient.

Yes, let's treat pain with anti-depressants and anti-epileptics. Neurontin and SSRI's. NOT! Tolerance is not the same as addiction when it comes to pain meds and pain management. I see this scenario as serving only one purpose: The eventual movement away from opiates to treat pain. That will have serious consequences. As a nurse for 30 years, I've seen this shift in approach and I do not like it. A few bad apples spoil it for the majority. There is a large majority of patients out there with acute and chronic pain and because of the DEA, FDA, and the State, they will not get covered for their pain. The pendulum has swung to the extreme. If it does not balance out, we will see uptick in suicides, and black-market purchases. There will also be a huge shift once again to heroin. Leave it to the government to eff things up royally. People need education and treatment, not education and OTC's. OTC's have very real consequences to as far as toxicity goes.

If I was suffering from severe pain (like the kidney stone stuck in my ureter for 3 weeks now) and the doctor sent in a mental health worker, I'd surely fly off the handle.

If this is what is taught in medical schools ...it's no wonder doctors are so F@$%ing stupid today

I NEVER saw any Drug seeking behavior. So to me the title of the video is incorrect. Also I had oral neuropathy which was unbelievably the worst experience. I was on antibiotics twice a day just so I could livle with the pain And this kept the Infection at Bay, however I went to 6 pain management doctors because my teeth were falling out breaking and they all every one of them accused me of beating a Meth addict. And they would not let me talk. They asked me to leave their office. There is no opioid Crisis. It's not pharmaceutical Fentanyl thats getting in all kinds of things.

This guy was a horrible drug seeker!

The woman needs to accept that she has a drinking problem. The hospital is being very supportive

This patient may have a mental illness which may be causing her to have alcohol problems. The fact that this patient needs hard liquor first thing in the morning is a concern. This requires further assessment by the medical team.

That man is a skilled actor. He should be hired to work at Hollywood in some movies !

Drs have a God complex I had a kidney stone and er dr called me a lier id love to see him have one with no pain meds

Some may do this,but Honestly,this is an insult

Always read/keep a copy of your medical records, especially in the A.I. world, as all docs will take as gospel the records. Geez!

"Good plan of care" ....not CURE. LOL😆 ! No pain relief pills for you ! 🚫

Bs

And how in the world can this man afford to go down the prescribed treatment plan😢😢

What a joke

Yeah I call BS. on this whole thing. You are reading from a script I got hurt at work totaled my back Lyrica and Cembolta left me in a Zombie State the Surgeon says no to surgery because I am high risk lets just say my new norm is pain all day and night and only have Tylenol. I can't even walk to the bathroom without wanting to scream you are not solving the problem you are adding to it and I have learned this over the last 10 months of seeing a surgeon, seeing a joke of a psin management doctor and nothing done. So stop trading pills for pills i took myself off all the pills because I refused to be poisoned after learning what thry actually do. Do not blow sunshine and rainbows up people asses. This really pissed me off.

Bet if it was a friend or family member they'd get a prescription on the spot.

As a recovering addict,IM SCARD TO DEATH TO HAVE REAL PAIN i know i won't get help

Just more gaslighting of the American public using the biopsychosocial road to nowhere. I wonder how many patients will go undiagnosed under this new model of medical tyranny?
