I agree on the big pharma pain pill B.S. But what bothers me more about them is antidepressants. They've been handing out truckloads of Paxil,Prozac,Lexapro, Wellbutrin etc for a few decades now and for all kinds of non related problems. SSRI antidepressants really screw with your brain chemistry. They used to advertise Prozac as the " Happy Pill" which was complete bull****. Those pills don't make you happy they just make you indifferent. They make you just plain not give a ****. And when that happens things can go bad real quick.I find it ironic that pain relief can be obtained from this as well as marijuana and the big pharma has an all out effort to keep it out of our hands, but to get legal pain pills that they produce, you have to be missing a limb.
If you study back over all the high profile violent crimes of the past two decades more often than not you will find antidepressants involved.
