If you have been given opioids for pain, did they work? I ask because for me they don’t. I get buzzed, euphoric, but they don’t do squat for pain for me. Same with marijuana. No effect on my pain at all.
In fact, for me, marijuana makes me even more accutely aware of physical discomfort. Am I just an oddball?
I stopped reading after the lead: > If you wonder why America is in the grips of a heroin epidemic that kills two hundred people a week About 3,000 people died today and about 60,000 got seriously injured in car accidents TODAY, according to ASIRT. I think the word "grips" is a bit of stretch here, no? > take a hard look at the legalization of pot, which destroyed the profits of the Mexican cartels. How is that legal…
So with people here talking about opioids from docs leading to heroin, a question came to mind: If you have been given opioids for pain, did they work? I ask because for me they don’t. I get buzzed, euphoric, but they don’t do squat for pain for me. Same with marijuana. No effect on my pain at all. In fact, for me, marijuana makes me even more accutely aware of physical discomfort.

Nope. It's the same for me. What I eventually worked out (I'm not 100% sure of this but I'm pretty certain) is that the strain of marijuana is important. Unfortunately I don't get to choose in my country :) But if it's a strain that gives a body high I become more aware of the pain, if it's not I become less aware.
Edit: If someone with knowledge on this matter can confirm (or refute) my assumption I'd appreciate it.
We need a stronger border to prevent heroin from entering our country.

Bullshit: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5323928
OP's comment was about the smuggling of drugs, specifically heroin, into the country. You said "bullshit" and then cited that NPR article as your source. The article discusses a decrease in apprehensions, but it clearly states the following: > This is still an active smuggling route, especially for drugs. I'm a little confused as to how this article supports the argument that building a wall helps limit drug smugglin…
