    I'm probably different this way, but I don't take medicine because my doctor tells me to.

    I research.

    Prince is responsible for what Prince puts in his body.

    If I get prescribed a narcotic, I'm probably not going on.

    Doctors aren't that bright. They'll put you on something like Nexium and twenty years later when you're screwed, the doctor is either dead or on Longboat Key with feet up.

    I'm sure Prince didn't use the Fentanyl as it was prescribed. That's why he's dead now

    Well one could argue that the way doctors prescribe leads to misuse.

    I'm sympathetic to that.

    But really, some people need to get rid of true pain and others don't want to feel any pain at all.

    Kurt Cobain used to say he needed drugs to help with his stomach. Right.

    Specifically, no, but the opioid problem isn't being solved by the refusal by many (driven by legal issues) to prescribe. I'm not even sure it's being helped. We've gone from an over-awareness of pain that encouraged doctors to prescribe whatever their patients want to a reluctance to the point of cruelty. There are many who actually need opioids to function (I'm happy not to be one of them).

    Sometimes they aren't, and people still don't want to give them up.

    Oh yes. But I think there is some truth to people searching them out with full knowledge of what's going on.
